About Clemens Güdel

With over 20 years of experience behind the lens, I have embraced photography not just as a profession, but as a part of my life.

My path to photography

Travelling through 57 countries, I discovered my joy and passion for photography. What started as a hobby on the road became my profession. For over 20 years I have worked as a self-employed photographer in the Zurich and Graubünden regions, based in Davos Frauenkirch and Rüschlikon.

Notable clients and projects

My clients include international organisations and companies at the World Economic Forum WEF in Davos, among them the OECD, Barclays Bank, the United Nations, META, ETH Zurich, Coinbase, CNBC and the Financial Times. In architecture photography, I work for Engel & Völkers Zurich and for exclusive property owners who want to present their properties professionally for WEF rental.

How I work

At large international events, I focus on moving professionally and calmly in the background. My fluent language skills in German, English, French and Spanish help me blend in. My goal is to anticipate the key moments and capture the decisive shots without drawing attention to myself.
