Lara Hauser

Growing up in Switzerland, she felt the desire to discover the world at an early age and has since lived in various places around the globe. Her professional career has been colourful and diverse, shaped by curiosity and creativity, with experience in a wide range of industries. Today, she pursues her passions in the fields of photography and film, fashion and journalism.

For her, photography is more than just capturing an image – it is a way of perceiving the world and people more consciously. Things that one would otherwise pass by without noticing suddenly become visible and meaningful. It is fascinating how photography sharpens the eye: suddenly one recognises beauty in details, in light, in structures – in everything that one might otherwise have overlooked. For her, encountering people from different cultures in front of the camera means making individual beauty, expression and stories visible. She finds it difficult to commit to just one subject – her photographic interests are too diverse: from reportage, fashion and art to architecture, events and nature.

Teaching photography is something very special for her. Not only because she can pass on her knowledge, but also because she wants to share her passion with others. She encourages her students not to simply copy others, but to discover their own style and live it with confidence. Like everything else in life, photography is subject to constant change – and that is precisely where the opportunity lies to break new ground and develop your own visual language. Modern image editing in particular opens up fascinating possibilities today: you can not only optimise photos, but also rethink them as a creative means of expression and design them individually.

For her, creativity is not a question of talent, but of perspective and the willingness to look closely. She is convinced that you can develop your creative eye like any other skill. And the more you live it, observe it and understand it, the more things fall into place – like a puzzle that suddenly makes sense.
