About Heidi Rondak

Fashion Photographer based in Berlin

Poetic Story Concepts

Creating photography means seeing a story around the model and fashion I capture. I’m always looking for more background than simply a studio, a color or a nice building. All places tell a story, the models and styling do so too and the light reflects it into my camera. Building a concept with a team and working out that story always makes it special for me. I love the process as much as the finished images. Someone told me that my visions are beautifully romantic. I hadn’t realised it until then, but I think they are!

Born in Lörrach in the Black Forest, Germany and growing up with the Zenit SLR of my father being part of the family’s everyday life, I early started looking for different points of views and capturing the beauty in everything. I also loved creating that beauty in sketches, handicraft work, stitching and finally in photographs.

Through travels in india after my school graduation, photographic internships and finally my studies in Communication Design, I developed a deep understanding of the use and interplay of camera, light and motive, as well as design thinking and the principles of creation.

I found myself flourishing when working with fashion pieces and models as it unites photography, art direction, human beauty, interesting backgrounds and the sensual application of styles. Since then I’m working as a fashion photographer.
