Corporate, Portraits, Reportage, alongside Advertising and Motion are the areas in which Raphael Zubler works. Authenticity is central to his innovative photographic and motion interpretations. Thanks to his intuitive feeling for light, he photographs with natural light just as skilfully as with artificial lighting.
Growing up amongst animated films, graphics and photos, Raphael already received inspiration as a child. A photographic apprenticeship and a year in the theatre with his father, the longstanding photographer at the Zurich Schauspielhaus, was followed by seven years as a freelancer. Assisting numerous swiss and international well-known photographers. At the same time, he took portraits of Swiss and Eastern European artists and made photo-reports which were shown in various exhibitions in Poland and Switzerland.

Some of the countries in which he has had productions are:
Angola, Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Belgium, China, Denmark, England, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Italy, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, Switzerland, Turkey, USA.
A network of production companies, casting professionals, location scouts, make-up and hair artists, fashion stylists working together on the pictures has steadily developed into a solid and reliable team.
What people are saying
The concentrated magician of images.
Raphael Zubler's experience as a photographer and videographer is extensive, his appearance modest. A concept for the photography of five bookshops for orte? Shortly afterwards, his idea: “The bookseller chooses a book, holds it with both hands, we see the book ...” The result is fascinating, the right thing for literary enthusiasts: the head behind the book. A bull's eye for the orte literary magazine.
