Ute Keuter & Tom Bruckmann

Ute Keuter and Tom Bruckmann are a photographer couple from Essen, Germany, who share not only their personal lives but also their passion for photography. Since 2014, photography has been more than just a hobby for them - it's a constant journey of personal and creative development. As well as shooting together, they spend every spare minute learning and improving their photography skills. Along the way, they have met many inspiring people who have significantly influenced their journey.

Since 2018, Ute and Tom have focused on portrait photography, although they also love other genres such as architecture, travel and sports photography. But working with people is particularly important to them. Inspired by renowned photographers such as Alessandro Di Cicco and Marco Gressler, they have developed their own photographic philosophy and style.

For Ute and Tom, a successful shoot means capturing the personality of the person in the picture and making sure that everyone involved likes the result. For them, communication between photographer and model is the basis for a successful shoot and high quality results.

For Ute and Tom, image editing is an essential part of the creative process. However, they are particularly concerned with the authenticity and naturalness of their photographs. Retouching and optimisation are important and essential to Ute and Tom, but the editing must not change the core message of the images. They believe that emotions should be photographed, not digitally added.
