Irene Schaur
Vienna - photographers
Irene Schaur is a Viennese photographer specialising in celebrity and nude photography. Her images are renowned for their provocative sex appeal, and as a woman who photographs almost exclusively other women, she always maintains a strong rapport with her models.
The tension in her work is seen at its best in the images commissioned by German Playboy, as well as in her own personal work where creativity and eroticism combine to sizzling effect.
Irene began taking photographs as a teenager and today it remains her strongest passion. When not photographing scantily clad ladies, Irene turns her talents to portraiture. "A good portrait must tell a story,“ she says. Irene has photographed many celebrities both in Austria and Germany.
