WORK

Hello, it's me.

I spare you the gpt generated marketing text about making your brand or band bigger, better, faster or stronger. I capture stories in music, sports, and people - both in motion and still. This is my work. Every single thing was made with love and and ever more curiosity. Some of these projects are once a lifetime moments, making me sometimes wonder, how I even got there. I am collecting those moments, in every shape and size.

Let´s talk!

WHAT´S THE STORY...

MeMeMe@christianhedel-0213-1

Not many people I know are self-taught and truly exceptional at what they do. Christian Hedel is one of those rare cases. An engineer by trade with a degree in ‘Media Technologies’ (whatever that means—I call BS on this one), he started out in an ad agency two decades ago, building banners and websites.

Things changed when he bought his first camera and began capturing everything around him. It was clear that this was more than a hobby. If he wasn’t shooting, he was editing—he had found his calling. His distinct style quickly set him apart. Put a hundred photos in front of me, and I’ll instantly pick out the one by Christian. His live music photography? Two words: ‘distinctly unique.’ His work is featured in Rolling Stone, Spiegel, and 11Freunde. Major festivals like Lollapalooza and Hurricane rely on him, as do Bayer Leverkusen and the Baller League.

Beyond photography, Christian has evolved into a true Swiss Army knife of content creation. He’s a videographer, animation designer, editor, and even works in book design and publishing. He still builds websites—including this one. With his constant drive to evolve, I can’t wait to see what he does next. One thing is certain: whatever it is, it will be remarkable. Now, if only he’d finally give me those St. Vincent and Johnny Marr prints*.
