About
I’m Nils Wilbert, a product and advertising photographer in Berlin. I photograph cosmetics, skincare, make-up and fragrance for beauty brands, companies and agencies. My work includes product photography for lavera and ZOEVA. From clear packshots for an online shop to styled still lifes for a campaign, I shape the lighting, composition and retouching around the product and the brand. I can work from your existing concept or develop the visual direction with you, planning styling and set building around the brief.
From beauty brief to finished image.
A single product, a new skincare range or a make-up launch: we agree on the visual direction, shots and formats before the shoot. This creates a cohesive set of beauty photographs for the channels where you plan to use them.
02
Concept & preparation
We define the shots, backgrounds, colours and props. The shot list covers product variations, packaging and the required image formats. We agree on scope, timing, usage rights and the quote in advance.
03
Lighting & shoot
I photograph your beauty products in the Berlin studio with carefully controlled lighting. Glass, glossy packaging, powders and creamy textures each call for a different lighting approach. We review the photographs against the agreed visual direction.
04
Retouching & delivery
I retouch the selected images with attention to colour, surfaces and product details. You receive the finished files in the agreed formats for e-commerce, advertising, social media or print.
Beauty product photography questions.
What to consider when planning a cosmetics product shoot.
Which beauty products do you photograph?
I photograph cosmetics, skincare and make-up, including creams, serums, body lotions, lipsticks, mascara, eyeshadow, nail polish and brushes. Fragrance bottles and product ranges are also part of my work. The focus is product photography and still life for your brand.
Can you shoot both packshots and campaign images?
Yes. For online shops, I create clear product photographs on an agreed background, with cut-outs if required. For beauty campaigns and social media, I create styled images using colour, props and textures. Both types can be planned within one production.
Can you photograph cosmetics textures and details?
Yes. Swatches, powders, creamy surfaces and packaging details can complement the product photographs. We discuss which qualities you want to show and plan the products and materials needed for those shots.
Can we send our products to Berlin?
Yes. You can send your beauty products to the Berlin studio by prior arrangement. We agree on quantities, condition, shipping dates and returns during the briefing. Texture shots or opened packaging may require additional samples.
How much does a beauty product shoot cost?
The cost depends on the number of products and shots, styling, retouching requirements and usage rights. Send me a product list, the intended use and any references, and I will prepare a quote for your production.
Which image formats and usage rights are included?
File formats, resolutions and crops are tailored to the intended use, such as product detail pages, shop banners, social ads or print. We agree on usage rights before the shoot and specify them in the quote.

Cosmetics photography in Berlin. For your brand.
NW Studio is Nils Wilbert’s photography studio in Berlin-Wedding. This page focuses on beauty product photography: professional images of cosmetics, skincare, make-up and fragrance for brands, companies and agencies. Lighting, composition and retouching are shaped around the product and your visual identity.
For e-commerce and online shops, I create cosmetics packshots, cut-outs and consistent product ranges. Styled beauty still lifes, texture photographs and detail images complement clear product views for campaigns, social media and print. This allows one production to serve several uses.
An enquiry about cosmetics photography starts with your product list, preferred visual style and intended use. Whether you need individual skincare products or a make-up range, we discuss the concept, styling, set building, retouching, image formats and usage rights in advance. Products can be sent to the Berlin studio by arrangement.
