Cover shoots and editorials
that tell stories
I am an editorial photographer and creative director based in Mallorca & Hamburg, published in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Tatler and Vanity Fair, with my own cover story in Moevir Paris. My signature: women in their highest self, staged cinematically, instantly recognisable everywhere.
For editorial teams I take on cover shoots, fashion and beauty editorials as well as travel and hospitality stories. For fashion brands I turn collections into editorials: campaigns and lookbooks with a story instead of a catalogue look. From the idea through team, styling and location production to the finished story. In Mallorca I produce with a well-rehearsed team, and I am available for commissions worldwide.
Full production in Mallorca: team, styling, locations, light. Short travel distances, fast turnarounds.

My Vision
I show women in their highest self
This is the core of everything I photograph: I see what makes a woman unique, often before she sees it herself. Every story grows from this vision. I do not think in single images but in covers and stories: one woman, one stage, one concept with a signature. That signature has taken my work into Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Tatler and Vanity Fair.
We breathe editorial: from the first sketch through styling to the last frame in the last light. My stories are planned like fashion stories, with moods, a route and dramaturgy. And they always tell the same thing in a new way: a woman who sees herself as she has never seen herself before.
How I see women




About me & my team
We breathe editorial
I am Sarah Bakker, editorial photographer and creative director. Since 2019 I have photographed over 1,500 women, made my name as a luxury wedding photographer and am at home today in high fashion editorial. The vision work is always mine: I get to know the woman in front of my camera and see what I see for her.
Behind it stands a well-rehearsed team that I assemble per production: stylists, hair & make-up, a colour and style expert, designers for custom pieces and videographers for behind the scenes. From the fitting to the last light, every story runs like a fashion production.
My Light
Not a classic studio photographer:
I work with natural light
One thing first: person in front of a backdrop, flash from the front, done. That is not me, and I am not the right one for it. I work with natural light, with light and shadow, with atmosphere. That is exactly why I love shooting outdoors: by the sea, in architecture, in the first and last light of the day. I see moods before they emerge, and I stage them so that an image feels like a film moment, not like a set.
For certain visual effects I add optional flash sessions, for example for the hard, glamorous look of a night story. But even those take place in natural surroundings: in a suite, in a lobby, at the location itself, never in front of a studio backdrop.
You book me for the special effect. If you are looking for a photographer who creates an impact with natural light that a studio cannot produce, then we are a match. And that is exactly how you recognise my stories: on my profile, in my publications and on every page of this website.
The strongest impact is created in natural light

For Fashion Brands
Your collection, told as an editorial
Fashion brands come to me when a collection deserves more than a catalogue: a visual world. I develop the concept along the collection, choose locations that match its attitude, and stage the looks to create desire: by the sea, in the city, in the studio. The result works everywhere: campaign, lookbook, social, e-commerce and press.
From premium label to luxury house: I produce with a complete team of styling, hair & make-up and videography, including model casting on request. Short distances in Mallorca, productions across Europe. One day, one collection, one story.

Why Sarah Bakker
My signature, instantly recognisable everywhere
With me you can rely on a well-rehearsed team: stylists, hair & make-up, designers for custom pieces and videographers. We can be booked as a whole, for new collections, for campaigns or for a cover story. Your editorial team then has nothing to worry about and places the production confidently in our hands.
Just as well, I can be booked on my own as the photographer and work with your team and your stylists. My team is not a must, but it is my recommendation: because we are so well-rehearsed, we achieve the best results together. I turn briefings around fast, I keep deadlines, and I deliver stories that work in layout: portrait and landscape, wide shots and details, with the cover in mind.
