Based on the Baltic Sea island of Ruegen, the creative company combines a humorous home perspective with a contemporary vision, creating photographs full of wit and beauty. With the enthusiasm to see the beauty of simple things, they like to realise rare views or use unusual settings. Their photographs create a new image and emphasize the emotional core of a message.

Christian focuses on producing work for agencies that furthers his natural, flexible and fresh approach. He also concentrates on his ongoing project, capturing images of The Nihang Warriors.

Johannes Knuth’s images appear to have captured the light of a thousand summers, holidays and weekends. His motifs embody an immensely intense sense of joie de vivre. These are short films from a world that coexists with the everyday, a world in which Johannes slips into with his camera. He manages to stage his models in such a natural fashion that the viewer almost feels as if he wasn’t actually there taking the photos. His images thus celebrate the most wonderful parts of life: the joy of the moment.
Born in 1979 in Herdecke/Ruhr, Johannes preferred seeing the world through his lens even as a child. After finishing school he moved to Miami, then to New York, always hot on the heels of the world’s best photographers. He returned from his travels armed with plenty of bounty - in particular a talent for staging a certain lightness.
Johannes has been represented by Christa Klubert Photographers since spring 2013.

After producing more than 50 cookery books over the last 10 years, it's now time for Peter to say "Hello!" on Production Paradise.

Clients including Audi and Volkswagen trust his intuition and sense for the right set and style, but also appreciate his sensitive and cooperative personality when it comes to successfully realising their projects.
