Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
I’m Katherin Wermke, photographer, visual storyteller and founder of Barcelona Photographer, a creative studio specialised in corporate photography, branding and audiovisual production. For more than 22 years I’ve helped companies, professionals and organisations communicate who they are through authentic and impactful visual storytelling — from executive portraits and branding photography to editorial and event coverage. My work focuses on capturing the essence of people and the identity of brands, creating images that build trust, visibility and strong visual communication. Alongside my commercial work, I am also a photography mentor and expert photography coach, teaching visual storytelling and portrait photography to professionals, students and organisations of all ages. I collaborate with international companies, cultural institutions and NGOs, and my work moves between corporate, editorial and documentary photography. 📍 Based in Barcelona — working internationally.
