"As a commercial photographer and visual storyteller, I specialise in high-impact narratives that bridge technical precision with artistic intuition. My work is defined by a mastery of light and perspective, allowing me to transform brand identities into iconic visual assets. 

Last year started with high-profile projects for Mercedes-Benz and HUK-Coburg.

I have continued to push boundaries by integrating virtual production into my workflow. Whether shooting advertising, automotive, or lifestyle, I collaborate closely with creative teams to deliver polished, narrative-driven results that don’t just showcase a product—they define a complete story."

"I’m Patrick, a Hamburg-based lifestyle and automotive photographer proudly represented by Wildfox Running.

My work is rooted in an analog-inspired, cinematic aesthetic that captures real moments with authenticity and energy. I believe that powerful imagery comes from honesty—whether it’s a car on the move, a product in use, or people in their element.

With a fresh perspective and bold storytelling, I bring new looks into the automotive and advertising world. My approach mixes lifestyle and product seamlessly. For me, photography is about creating a world that feels lived-in, raw, and emotional—visuals that move beyond the surface and truly connect.

Always open for collaboration, I’m excited to shape campaigns that don’t just look good but resonate deeply."

"On the road again—analog and real.”

Photographer Patrick Stegmaier takes us on a visual road trip through his portfolio: a journey from dusty desert highways to golden-hour rooftops, all shot on real film.

His work thrives on natural light, cinematic tones, and honest casting—letting the cars breathe as part of a bigger story.

From a Genesis in Joshua Tree to a red Audi caught between sheep in the mountains – every frame feels like a film still you want to step into.

For brands that don’t just want to show the ride, but feel it.
