Katherin Wermke, Barcelona Photographer Agency
Teaches Studio Lighting for Editorial, Fashion and Portrait Photography
I am a corporate and editorial photographer with 22 years of international experience across Barcelona, New York, Berlin and India. Educated at SVA and ICP New York among other international institutions, I began my visual-arts career in TV production in Cologne and Mexico. Later I founded my agency and studio, Barcelona Photographer, specializing in visual communication for brands, and continue my international work alongside teaching at Elisava.
I am the founder of Barcelona Photographer, a photography and video production agency with an international focus. I lead projects for brands across corporate, industrial, interior and event photography. I am also the co-founder of Photo Utopia, a creative studio where I develop editorial and commercial projects alongside a team of multidisciplinary photographers.
“For me, teaching photography is not just about explaining techniques or reviewing images. It is about creating the right environment for students to explore their visual curiosity and develop their own voice. In my classes, I focus on providing practical tools while encouraging experimentation, critical thinking and a thoughtful, intentional approach to image-making.”
