Ole Christiansen is a portrait photographer in Valby with a strong graphic style. He creates characterful, professional portraits for private and corporate clients — ideal for LinkedIn and press.
As a portrait photographer in Valby, Ole Christiansen offers a rare combination of craft, long experience and a distinctive graphic visual signature. Trained in photography in 1980 and with more than four decades of work for books, magazines and record covers, he has developed a portrait style that is both expressive and timeless. Where many portrait photographers search for invisible, flawless solutions, Ole instead steps forward with a clear formal language: a reduced color palette, strong graphic lines and a focus on the eyes as the central expressive element. His images allow pores, wrinkles and facial contours to tell stories — creating coherence and authenticity in both personal portraits and professional images for companies. The working process is marked by calm and a collaborative approach. Ole meets you in Valby or at an agreed studio or outdoor location, briefly discusses the purpose of the portrait (for example a LinkedIn headshot, press photo or artistic portrait) and creates a relaxed atmosphere in which natural expression can emerge. He composes and frames his subjects with an editorial eye — exactly the approach that many editors, artists and organisations have sought him out for over the years. Although portrait photography is his primary expertise, Ole also brings experience from related fields such as urban photography, commercial assignments and art projects. These practices enrich his portrait work: the ability to read graphic planes, light and composition in everyday situations makes his portraits particularly strong and visually recognisable. Ole Christiansen’s images are documented in several books and exhibitions, and his photographs have appeared on magazine covers and assignments for a wide range of Danish artists and cultural figures. He offers more than a single image — as a portrait photographer in Valby he delivers a carefully considered visual statement tailored to your needs for professional, characterful portrait photography. Whether you need a LinkedIn photo, a press portrait or an artistic commission, Ole approaches each assignment with technical skill, visual clarity and respect for the subject’s individuality.
