Bernd Cierpiol has been working in fashion, people and lifestyle photography for 20 years. The subject of his photography is a human; he is interested in characters, faces and their true expressions. Bernd has always been avoiding fleeting trends and empty beautification in his work, which helped him find his own photography language that is unpretentious but powerful. Total control over the shooting process and production is one of the defining characteristics of his working method. Bernd loves coincidences and surprises but only if they were carefully prepared by him before.

During his career he has worked with many beauty and fashion brands such as OTTO and MOROCCANOIL, model agencies, PR-Agencies and editorials like Vogue Italia and Die Welt. Bernd's portfolio also boasts works in landscape and industrial photography.
