Tiwigrafie GbR

What Tiwigrafie GbR does

Tiwigrafie GbR is a privately held German civil-law partnership (GbR) headquartered in Coesfeld in the Münsterland region of North Rhine-Westphalia, founded by Anja Tiwisina (Fotografenmeisterin) and Marco Tiwisina. The company provides professional photography and videography services to small and mid-sized German enterprises, with a documented portfolio of 60+ client projects over the past three years spanning business portraits, website shooting, brand shooting, content-creation shooting, event reportage, branding/image videos, employer branding, recruiting videos, and video course production. Production leverages a natural-light methodology, an in-house studio location (Münsterlandloft, Nottuln), and on-site delivery at client premises, supported by a content strategy development framework. Founding year is reported as 2005 in the company's own history and 2020 in the firmographic record; both dates coexist in the data.

The commercial model combines project-based services billed via flat-rate packages (typically mid-to-lower four-figure euros, with a 30% deposit and 7-day net balance) with a parallel productised education pillar branded 'Tiwigrafie Lernen'. The Lernen catalogue comprises self-paced online courses (e.g. Smartphone-Fotografie für Dein Business at €19, the Testimonials Mini-Kurs at €19), live online workshops (Business-Reels workshop at €79), and high-touch services such as Content Interview (€149, up to 8 Reels delivered in 48 hours), 1:1 Content-Sparring (from €149), and 'Rent a Marco' advisory (from €290). These are sold direct via the website and through the third-party CopeCart e-commerce platform. In August 2026 the company is launching the Impact Content System, a €60/month (or €50/month on a 12-month commitment) subscription bundling content recipes, templates, feedback and monthly practice checks — its first recurring-revenue product.

Go-to-market is dual-motion: a consultative direct sales motion for production services (free kickoff meeting, tailored proposal, WhatsApp/Calendly/phone/email touchpoints) and a product-led growth motion for education via the website and CopeCart. Customers are primarily German SMEs and mid-market firms, with adjacent segments in HR/recruiting, solo entrepreneurs, sales-driven businesses, and event organisers. Distribution is overwhelmingly direct; the team remains small (5 people including founders, two junior team members, and a 'feel-good manager'), the company is entirely founder-owned with no external investment, and the value proposition is centred on authentic, human-centred visual content rather than staged production.
