Philipp Czampiel (b. 1995) is a documentary and portrait photographer born in Wuppertal, Germany and currently living in Berlin.

In his photography, he proves a deep appreciation for his surroundings and everyday life. Thematically he explores the interfaces between life, our societal structures and our environment. Through an introspective and personal approach he is asking questions and making visual commentaries on everyday experiences as they happen.

Philipp aims to tell stories through his images that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also offer a deeper insight into the human experience. In his work with companies and foundations as well as at events, he wants his work to be seen not just as a service, but as a kind of participation through which the essence of the shared experience is sought to be grasped and communicated authentically and visually. 

Philipp is a member of Fotografie Berlin e.V. and the AFF Galerie in Berlin.
