Frankfurt-based Per Schorn, born in 1978, discovered his love of photography during a school project – not knowing that this passion would one day become his profession.
He is a representative of staged photography that follows a concept. In doing so, he does not negate reality: music, art and film – he absorbs it all. In his portraits, he captures the essence of the subject, within scenographies that reveal much about the theme he is visualising.

As a young photographer, he toured Germany with the US punk band Ignite. He went on to study Design at the University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt, including art photography under the guidance of Kris Scholz. He also worked as a photo assistant for renowned national and international photographers, marking the beginning of his career as an independent photographer.

Per Schorn has worked as a lecturer in practice-oriented photography at Darmstadt University and as a guest lecturer in photography at RheinMain University. He is a BFF Professional and a member of the AOP.

"I’m the narration of this fairytale / Lock me in the center of your wishing well“

These words come from the song 'Holograms' by L.S. Dunes.

The selected photographs by Per Schorn show both his love of detail and the diversity of his subjects: from the captivating silence of the foggy Fanal forest with its soft green colours, to the exhilarating loud colors of the recruiting campaign for the VGF, Per skillfully plays up and down the keyboard of possibilities.

In his portraits, he always manages to capture the essence of his protagonist’s personality through meticulous staging of the surrounding and sensitive light composition.

The landscapes, on the other hand, become an 'unstaged stage' for everything that Per finds in the places he visits: lanterns, trees, or even a cow that briefly emerges from the fog.

Schärferaum in Bad Homburg is not just a unique photo studio—it’s also the perfect venue for meetings, workshops, and creative sessions. Housed in a former carpentry workshop, this inspiring space offers a light-filled, open atmosphere that fosters collaboration and innovation.
