Araí Moleri is a Uruguayan photographer and retoucher based between Berlin and Montevideo. She has produced images for several designer brands, including Majo Rey, Nina Hauzer, Sarah Kosta, Hómini and Je Suis.

Some of Araí's images have also been painted around the world as large murals by the renowned collective of mural artists, Colectivo Licuado.

During her studies as a product designer and visual artist, Araí's interest in photography began to grow. She worked as a camera assistant on a stop-motion movie with director, Walter Tournier in 2010 and also studied photo retouching for fashion and beauty. She has since continued working as a photographer and retoucher.

Araí began with fashion photography and portraiture before being introduced to product, architecture and still life. With a passionate eye for detail and colour, she has always retouched her own photographs and so has maintained control of her images from beginning to end of the creative process.

In 2018 she moved to Berlin, where she has continued working as a retoucher and photographer. Her photos have been published in magazines such as ExBerliner, Ícona and BLNC magazine, among others.

Jan Steinhilber had a great opportunity to shoot the new 911 Speedster in a very special location: the Porsche Archives, a well hidden facility near Stuttgart packed with incredible treasures of automotive and racing history - especially air-cooled ones! Being a legendary derivate of the 911 by heritage, it felt only natural to shoot this car together with its ancestors and other legends.

The commissioning agency for this project was Kemper Kommunikation from Frankfurt, with Art Director Lars Heberer and Art Buyer Agnieszka Henkel.

After completing her training as a Media Designer, Katrin Winner went to Nuremberg to study Graphic Design and Photography. She found her professional fulfillment by combining her passion for good food with her artistic creativity and has since worked as a food-photographer.

Because of the farm her parents own and working there with them over the years, she knows exactly how much hard work and energy it takes to produce fresh and organic food, so she’s always eager to work sustainably.

During her studies, Katrin gained experience at well-known food photography studios in Hamburg and Munich. After five years as a photographer, she decided in the beginning of 2018 to set up her own studio for food and still-life-photography in Munich.

You can find the latest Katrin's work on ther Instagram account.

Kai Schwabe has put a lot of thought into a new look for drinks and food recipe presentation, avoiding the "shabby or messy look" that is often found online. Instead he deploys a clear picture language with recipes and other angles for cocktails, and in addition relies on clear uni-colour combinations for his backgrounds. A hard light full of interesting shadows supports it all.

Kai put together the self-promo photo series featured in this Showcase together with his assistant Lisa and stylists Christoph Hoefs and Clarence Brown IV.

He has been working for brands like Mondelez, Uncle Ben's, Metro and Milka for many years. His studio offers the best prerequisites for his creative work.

Kai works between Bremen and Hamburg.
