Im Nachgang zuviel shots in gleicher Pose....mehr Abwechslung Sofa etc .wäre cool gewesen...oder mit freien Oberkörper und Jeans (kein Erotik)...hat sich aber während des Shootings nicht ergeben zu fragen....war aber lustig und schön

Wirklich schöne Bilder, haben uns bei den Dreien aus dem Studio sehr wohl gefühlt. Keine fünf Sterne, weil die Farbkomposition beim BS-Shooting 2012 NOCH besser war und aktuell noch 1 Foto fehlt, was hoffentlich bald nachgesendet wird

Below are the answers to the 3 most-asked questions. Click any question to see the answer.

Is there really only one photo included?

The price shown covers the base fee for the session—the team’s work and your time in the studio—plus your favorite photo from all the shots taken (~80–100) as a high-resolution digital file.

What do additional photos cost?

Additional photos can be purchased individually or as part of a photo package. Depending on quantity, format, and extras, the per-image price ranges from €5 to €30. See the full price list here: Our photo packages →

Can the photos be taken outside?

These sessions take place in our conveniently located studio in Hamburg-Altona. If the weather cooperates, we’re happy to shoot nearby—we know plenty of great backdrop spots. For a dedicated outdoor session at the Hamburg harbour, HafenCity, or anywhere else in Hamburg, contact us and we’ll put together a custom quote.

FAQ—Real Man Photo Session

What does a men’s photo session cost?

A men’s session at BEAUTYSHOTS Hamburg is only €79 — including grooming by our artist, the session with 80–100 captures, and one fully retouched, full-resolution digital image. No obligation to buy more. See the full price list on our pricing page.

How is this different from the business headshot session?

The men’s session (€79) is the standard portrait for personal use—LinkedIn, dating, social media. The business headshot session (€149) also includes commercial usage rights—important when the images appear on company websites or in PR material. For personal use, the men’s session is all you need.

What should I wear?

Bring 2–3 outfits you feel good in: a business look (shirt + jacket), a casual look (T-shirt + jacket or sweater), and maybe something distinctive. Avoid wild patterns and high-contrast colors.

Do I need to visit the barber first?

No — our artist styles your hair on site. If you want a fresh haircut or beard trim, schedule it 1–2 days before, not the same day (freshly cut hair needs a day to fall naturally).

How long does the session take?

About 2 hours — including grooming, the session itself, and the on-screen image selection. Plenty of time to settle in and warm up.

Can I gift a men’s photo session?

Sure—it works as a birthday gift or a “you really should do this” present. The PDF voucher arrives by email immediately, is transferable, and is valid for at least 3 years. Buy a gift voucher →

Where does the session take place?

In our private studio in Hamburg-Altona: Beerenweg 1E, 22761 Hamburg. Directions & contact →
