Hannes Becker
A course by Hannes Becker
Hannes Becker is a freelance landscape and outdoor photographer. Having grown up in rural Germany, his interest in nature and the tranquility of remote settings was kindled from a young age. Although his work is largely centered around adventure stories and capturing unique natural scenes, it is not of a solely documental nature, but also left partly open to personal interpretation.
In 2014, he began sharing his pieces on Instagram and, since then, has become one of the most followed travel photographers in the world. Today he shares his art with more than 1.7 million Instagram followers and has worked both in front of and behind the camera for big-name clients like Barbour, Mercedes-Benz, Samsung, and Panerei.
