Hi there, 

My name is Marina Ickes — I’m a portrait and actor photographer based in Munich, working across Germany and Europe. I specialize in cinematic photography that captures the depth, presence, and authenticity of every person in front of the camera — whether they’re professional actors or individuals looking for meaningful, character-driven portraits.

Over the past year, I’ve collaborated with talent agencies and actors not only in Germany, but also in Italy, Austria, and beyond. My work includes portraits of actors featured in Netflix productions, major international films, and national television. 

Originally from Russia, I’ve been living in Munich for 5 years — a city that continues to inspire me with its elegance and cultural richness. My love for storytelling, vintage film cameras, and vinyl records informs my aesthetic — timeless, soulful, and cinematic.

Whether you’re an actor building a portfolio, an agency looking for a trusted collaborator, or simply someone in search of a portrait that truly reflects who you are — I’d love to connect.
