Thiemo Sander is a Paris-based German pho-
tographer. His first encounter with photography
was at the age of 14, when his father gave him
a camera. He went on to study photography in
Munich, getting his big break when German Elle
published his pictures. His images of women
highlight their individual sensuality and beauty,
character and inner spirit. While he prefers to stay
out of the spotlight himself, Thiemo Sander works
extensively in fashion and jewellery, for brands
such as Fred, Cartier and Boucheron. He has
also photographed personalities including Monica
Bellucci, Emmanuelle Beart, Lea Seydoux, Isabelle
Adjani and Diane Kruger.
