"I appreciate your approach to people. I´ll be coming back on you.“ A client's quote after an extensive day of shooting.

Munich-based photographer Armin Brosch centers on business portraiture - be it the management board for the annual report, profile photos of employees for the website, or documenting a company event.

"Hello! We're 7 Seas Productions, a small team of motivated and mult-lingual  perfectionists who work tirelessly and passionately to produce your amazing art. We work out of France and the Americas, Colombia, Cuba and Argentina so you don't pay travel costs as we're the people on the ground! Our clients see us as more a partner than a supplier, because we can advise not only on the 'how' but also on the 'where'. By offering services and locations, we are among the kind of people who believe that 'too much' is indispensable.

Get everything from one place - many clients book us in France and then come to Cuba. They discover Argentina with us and then come to Colombia. Follow JP Boden, Bloomingdales, J.Crew, Bergdorf Goodman and Mr Porter around the 7 Seas!”

"Are you wishing for the Alps in August? A beach with a wooden jetty? Hoping to find a castle with a vineyard? Seeking out a villa or an award-winning architectural building?

7 Seas Productions has worked tirelessly to ensure that the Maritime Alps regain its number 1 place among Mediterranean location sites. The French Mediterranean is the embodiment of what a versatile production region should be. If Nice doesn’t take your breath away, just wait until you see Marseille!

Throw a location-challenge at 7 Seas and they´ll figure out a way to find it. They have the right size, the knowledge and the necessary amount of connections to turn your production into a smashing success.

Pastis and Lavender? A lot has changed during the last 15 years, every city came up with modern buildings, nicer squares and broader promenades. Delve for locations! Delta offers direct flights from NYC to Nice.

Recent works were carried out for Cabi USA by Matador Productions, Wellendorff Jewellers, Pure Collection UK, Ellesse, and Mr. Porter."

"Do you want to be in the driver’s seat for Latin American productions?"

7 Seas Productions is the first international production services to set foot in Colombia, with an office situated in Cartagena on the Colombian Caribbean coast. Recently described by the New York Times as being Tulum 2.0, Cartagena is fast becoming the next location hotspot.

Cartagena’s character is contained in two small, stunningly photogenic neighbourhoods: the walled colonial Old City and the rising barrio Getsemaní. Offshore Cartagena, one finds 28 islands protected by a reef, with shimmering blue-green waters and villas that overlook the shoreline.

Colombia is “Film Friendly” and the Colombian Caribbean is very safe. Daily flights from NYC, Fort Lauderdale and Miami make it an easy access shoot destination. A good deal of photo and film infrastructure already exists locally -and keeps growing-. Anything else can be found easily in Bogotá.

7 Seas also has offices based in Buenos Aires and Havana.

Working with celebrities is a special challenge. Often only a few minutes remain for photoshoots, thus preparation is the most important task.

Born in 1968 in a little town near Munich, for his 6th birthday Ronny Kiaulehn received his first camera, an Agfa pocket. At 12 years of age he bought a Pentax ME, then a few years later school offered photography courses and he got the key to the darkroom, which is where his love for photography truly began.

“I love to create my own lighting, that‘s why I work with battery studio flash units most of the time when I do outdoor and action photography. I like the challenge of setting up my studio set also under really difficult conditions, like carrying 50kg of lighting equipment up a mountain top to do some action shots for a mountain bike client.

When I decided to get into underwater photography it was clear to me that I wanted to adapt the same lighting techniques I use above to water. I enjoy the underwater shoots most because they need a lot more planning, preparation and skills. They are not as predictable as studio or outdoor shoots, but this is what makes them very special and a real challenge.”

Thomas L. Fischer is based in Munich and specialises in corporate and industrial photography. His portfolio contains a wide spectrum of highly technical, complex still photographs, emotional portraits, images of large-scale projects and aerial photographs across all areas of industrial photography.

He began his career as a still photographer in the studio. His knowledge of creating sophisticated lighting situations is a bonus when producing industrial shoots on location as well as during post-production.

As an additional service, Thomas offers in-house image post-processing which - in coordination with the agency or client - generates individual imagery.

Thomas works worldwide for clients including Audi, Strabag AG, MAN, Henkel, Cisco Systems, Siemens, Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, Roland Insurance and more.
