What people say

‘Matthias, has shot us a couple times now, both portraits and live. He is a talented photographer, easy to work with but most important of all he is a good person’ – Portugal. The man

‘Matthias Hombauer was the first photographer to capture the spirit, the beauty and the unique style of SHANTEL & THE BUCOVINA CLUB ORCHESTAR. I tried very hard to find some one with his touch, nobody could. loved rockers and anarchy and romance. the photographs speak for themselves…’ – Shantel

 

‘We had a great show in Vienna at WUK, and when we saw Matthias Hombauer’s photographs we felt they captured something really special from the gig. In particular, Matthias made it look like an exciting gig to watch – which we all hoped it was! The wideangle shot is one of our favourite live shots from the whole tour. We’re very glad Matthias was there to catch the moment. Respect.’ – Fink

 

‘Matthias has the rare and very much appreciated combination of being both professionally calm yet politely instructional simultaneously. His enthusiasm is infectious and his patience exceptional. Matthias works at an impressive pace and he knows when he has ‘the shot’! I felt like I was in very safe hands and I genuinely can’t wait to shoot with Matthias again. It was a pleasure.’ - Erica Nockalls, violinist

 

“It’s a rare talent to fit all of the energy and tension of a live performance through the glass of a lens and onto a print, many a moment sadly becoming a casualty of bad translation in a day and age where everyone carries a camera in their pocket. Matthias possesses this talent, and has allowed us a rare insight into how our concerts must look through the eyes of a spectator.” – I HEART SHARKS

 

‘Was great having Matthias along to our last show in Vienna. He got some fantastic shots and was great to hang out with!’ – Wolf Gang

‘I always look for a playful edge in photographers during photo shoots. If the photographer shares my enthusiasm for childish quirks and explorations then I feel much more at ease in front of the lens. Within just a few minutes in the presence of Matthias, when we met in a little hotel in Vienna, I was feeling very comfortable and excited to see the outcome of our session.’ – Rachel Sermanni
