Helena Heilig
Helena Heilig has been a professional photographer since 2002. Inspired by the atmosphere and smells in her grandfather's darkroom, she decided to study photography in Oxford.
In her portrait photography, she aims to convey an authentic impression of her clients.
After successfully completing her photography studies in Oxford, Helena Heilig has been working as a freelance photographer in Munich since 2002. Her focus is on portrait, fashion and business photography. She also works as an event photographer and supports renowned magazines in the field of editorial photography.
