With their studio located in the heart of Vienna, Michael Langoth and Josef M. Fallnhauser have been known as 'Trizeps' since the 1980s.

Trizeps is a leader in food and packaging photography. With their knowledge of food and cooking, Michael and Josef are unbeatable when it comes to consulting with clients and creating images replete with natural beauty.

Still life and jewellery are other focal points of their work, along with  in-house post-production - an integral component which ensures complete control from capture to the final result. Trizeps’ people photography relies on a conceptual strength that provides a recognisable signature to their work. Experience and unique techniques allow for fast and precise capturing of clients' visions.

As well as commercial work, Trizeps has also produced a series of food books that concentrates on traditional cooking techniques across various cultures. Three books published by Styria Verlag include 'Mekong-Food' (Asia), 'Il Po' (Italy), and 'Spirit & Spice' (India). A fourth book is on its way.

Clients include agencies and companies. Visit the website for more information.

Stephan Huger is a Vienna-born and based international multi-award-winning photographer specialising in architectural and hotel imagery.

Stephan combines his vast experience of nearly 30 years behind the camera with close attention to detail at every stage of a project, from pre-planning to meticulous post-production. Every resulting image is crisp, light and colour balanced and naturalistic in style.

His architectural pictures reflect the ambitions and achievements of the architects, but in a way that viewers can also recognise the pronounced hand of a photo artist. Stephan believes that this is what makes 'the art' of architectural photography, that the authors of both the given subject and the way it has been represented are equally identifiable.

From 6th-10th November Stephan's latest award-winning images will be on display during the 5th China International Digital Photography Art Exhibition at the Photography Museum of Lishui, China.
