Your presence at the trade fair for internal and external security. Booth, conference, exhibits and political visits – captured discreetly, with permission and subject to your approval.

Enforce Tac – the trade fair for internal and external security runs under the motto “Connecting Minds. Protecting Europe.” and has strictly restricted access: only authorities with security responsibilities, armed forces, ministries and the relevant industry are admitted – with proof and from the age of 18. Equipment, vehicles, protection and detection technology meet the Enforce Tac Conference with its Main Stage and Inno Stage, the Enforce Tac Village with operational scenarios and the Armored Forces Area. Photographically this is a fair where discretion matters more than any subject.
For more than 20 years I have been photographing the leading fairs at Messezentrum Nürnberg; I worked at Enforce Tac in 2026 – the images on this page were taken there. I know the permission process, the limits of what is allowed and the rhythm of tours with political visitors, where there are often only minutes. For you that means no familiarisation and no discussion at the entrance – I arrive at the booth and start as soon as permission is in place.
Your trade fair presence is an investment in booth construction, exhibits and team. Professional images make that investment visible and usable beyond the fair: for your website, LinkedIn, sales material, press work and the planning of your next show – always subject to your approval. You receive the complete, edited gallery within five working days, and on request a first selection on the same evening for a surcharge.
Website, social media, catalogue, advertising, booth design, press work – unlimited in time, territory and content. No re-licensing, no tiered prices by usage, no follow-up fees next year. From delivery, the images are yours to use.
Your trade fair presence costs many times what its documentation costs – and afterwards it lives almost entirely on the images. That is why at Enforce Tac I cover every subject you will actually need later – within the scope of what has been approved.

A talk on the Main Stage or Inno Stage of the Enforce Tac Conference, a panel, the audience: speaker, room and stage design in one set.

Tour, welcome, conversation at the exhibit and group photo with the booth team: occasions that are short and cannot be repeated. I am in position before the delegation arrives.

Detection and defence systems, protective equipment, vehicles: factual product shots of your own exhibits, cleanly separated from the bustle – only what you want to show.
Your presence as a whole: architecture, brand wall and lighting – preferably in the quiet minutes before opening, when nobody is in the frame.
Advice at the exhibit, a press interview at the booth, the handshake after the meeting – photographed so that conversation partners from authorities are only recognisable by arrangement.
Your booth team in action, plus clean business portraits right at the booth on request – without anyone having to leave the hall.
Partner reception, booth evening, dinner with delegations: the occasions where relationships are built. Bookable in addition to the show day – with the lighting that evenings require.
The following images were taken at Enforce Tac 2026 at Messezentrum Nürnberg: conference, tours with political visitors, group photos, exhibits and press – exactly the subjects that will document your presence in 2027.









In 15 minutes we clarify booth number, hall, time slot, shot wishes and whether management is only on the booth at a specific time. Free of charge.
I arrive on time, work quietly and never interrupt a conversation. With a fixed shot list if you like, otherwise documenting as things happen.
On request and for a surcharge you receive a selection of edited images the same evening – in time for the social post or press release the next morning.
The full, edited set is in your online gallery within 5 working days – that is the standard. Download in web and print resolution, full usage rights.
A photo shows the booth – a film shows the atmosphere. Reach on social media, emotion in your post-show report, a lasting image film for your website: video can be added to the photo coverage, from one source and at the same booth.
Short vertical clips for Instagram, LinkedIn & TikTok – edited fast, on request while the fair is still running. Standalone or in addition to photos.
Your trade fair presence as a story: booth, team, products and customer voices in a high-quality film that works long after the show.
The whole show as a professional film – multi-day coverage, clean lighting, interviews and agency-level editing. Ideal for your next show recap.
Video is quoted individually and can be booked separately from photography – just mention it in your enquiry.
You pay for the time on site – not the number of images. Every package includes editing, online gallery and commercial image rights. The flat travel fee is €35 within Nuremberg, Erlangen and Fürth – because I am based here, there are no travel and hotel costs like with photographers coming from elsewhere.
Each additional hour €150. Express delivery of first images on the same evening for a surcharge. All prices net plus VAT. The terms of the price list apply.
Then you need something different from a reportage. Not as much of the trade fair bustle as possible, but a few perfect shots of the booth you built – for your portfolio and your next tender. Straight lines, clean light, distractions retouched away: this is architectural photography in a trade fair setting. That is why there is a fixed package instead of an hourly rate – the effort lies less in the time at the booth than in the retouching afterwards.
Ideally before the fair opens. Then your booth is finished and tidy, with no visitors in the frame – the difference between a reference photo and a snapshot. For this I need an exhibitor pass from you in good time, so I can get onto the grounds before the visitors. Just tell me when the booth will be ready.
More images or several booths: gladly on request. Booth photography at the exhibition centre is a special item and therefore not part of the general price list. All prices net plus VAT, commercial image rights included here too.
Enforce Tac is the trade fair for internal and external security and takes place every year at Messezentrum Nürnberg; it is organised by NürnbergMesse. In 2027 it runs from Monday, 1, to Wednesday, 3 March, immediately before IWA OutdoorClassics. Admission is restricted to trade visitors from authorities with security responsibilities, armed forces, ministries and the relevant industry – with proof and from the age of 18. According to the organiser, filming and photography are strictly prohibited; images can only be taken with explicit permission.
For context: according to the organiser's final report, more than 1,400 exhibitors from 45 countries and around 26,500 trade visitors from 100 countries attended in 2026. A small, highly specialised circle – every conversation counts here, and those conversations are what your images should tell later.
Coverage starts at €390 plus VAT for up to two hours on site. A half day (up to 4 hours) costs €750, a full day (up to 8 hours) €1,500, each additional hour €150. On top comes the flat travel fee of €35 within Nuremberg, Erlangen and Fürth. Every package includes editing, online gallery and full usage rights. You pay for the time on site, not the number of images – no re-licensing and no extra fees for web, print or social media use.
The complete, edited gallery is ready within five working days as standard – for download in web and print resolution. If you need first images on the evening of the show, for a social post or the press release the next morning, an express selection is available for a surcharge. Just mention it when booking.
Only with permission – and I say that openly. The organiser explicitly states that filming and photography are strictly prohibited at Enforce Tac. An assignment is therefore only possible if the organiser explicitly approves the photography or I am accredited through you as the exhibitor; without that approval I do not photograph there. I know the procedure and worked at Enforce Tac in 2026. I photograph only your booth, your exhibits, your team and your guests – no other booths and no other exhibitors' products. Members of authorities and armed forces are photographed only by arrangement, and you approve every image before it is published. Because permission takes time, please enquire early.
Yes. Tours with representatives from politics and ministries are often the most important minutes of the show day at Enforce Tac – and they are short. Welcome, conversation at the exhibit, group photo with the booth team: there is usually little time for any of it. I agree the schedule with you in advance, am in position before the delegation arrives and follow the instructions of the accompanying staff and security. If you need the images for a quick announcement, a selection on the same evening is available for a surcharge.
That is a different product from a reportage and is therefore offered as a fixed package instead of an hourly rate: €390 plus VAT for up to six images and up to 1.5 hours on site, including high-end retouching K2. Booth photography means straight lines, carefully placed light and retouching that removes distractions – technically it is architectural photography in a trade fair setting, and most of the effort lies in post-production. Ideally these shots are taken before the fair opens, when the booth is finished, tidy and empty. For this I need an exhibitor pass from you in good time, so I can access the grounds before the visitors. More images or several booths are quoted individually. Booth photography at the exhibition centre is a special item and therefore not part of the general price list. Commercial image rights are included here too, so you can use the images without restriction for portfolio, website and tenders.
There is no fixed limit. Two hours typically produce 60 to 120 usable images, a full day several hundred. You receive the edited selection – rejects, duplicates and blinks are sorted out beforehand.
Yes. The NürnbergMesse house rules generally prohibit photography and filming on the grounds – photos may only be taken with permission. As the photographer commissioned by you, I enter the fair with an exhibitor pass or accreditation, coordinated with you and the organiser. You do not need to worry about it, but please let me know your booth number and contact person in good time. I photograph your booth, your team and your guests – not other exhibitors' new products.
Yes, with every booking and at no extra cost. You receive commercial image rights unlimited in time, territory and content – for website, social media, catalogue, advertising, booth design, press work and sales material, including passing them on to your dealers and partners. No re-licensing, no tiered prices by usage and no follow-up fees next year. A photo credit is appreciated but not required.
At trade fairs I work strictly in reportage style. That means no portraits of visitors, and nobody appears as the main subject of an image. People appear in booth situations, overviews and conversations as part of the scene – not as the subject. Anyone shown more closely is one of your own staff or their conversation partner at the booth. This approach is designed so you can use the images without having to collect consent from strangers afterwards. On request I also deliver a selection in which no third parties are recognisable.
Yes. Video can be added to the photo coverage, from one source and at the same booth: short vertical social media clips for Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok, a narrative image film of your presence, or a high-quality film covering all show days. Clips can be edited while the fair is still running. Video is quoted individually – just tell me what you need in your enquiry.
Yes, and at trade fairs that is often the most valuable part. VIP reception, customer evening, booth party after closing, award ceremony or dinner with your key accounts – I can be booked for these, also in addition to the show day. Evening events need different lighting and a different presence than the hall; I bring both from more than 20 years of event photography. For occasions around Enforce Tac I agree with you in advance which guests may be photographed. Just mention in your enquiry whether an evening slot is included.
Yes. Many exhibitors book exactly the time slot when management is at the booth, a product launch takes place or a talk is scheduled. Two hours is the minimum; anything beyond is charged by the hour or as a day package.
In principle up to the day of the show – realistically only as long as the date is still available. In 2027, Enforce Tac takes place at the beginning of March, right before IWA OutdoorClassics – because permission is required, please enquire particularly early. For major leading fairs the days are usually taken several weeks in advance – if you want to be sure, enquire early.
Yes – from Spielwarenmesse, BIOFACH, embedded world and IWA OutdoorClassics to it-sa, SPS and GaLaBau. An overview of dates can be found in the overview of trade fair photography in Nuremberg.
Tell me your hall, booth number and preferred time slot – we will clarify the rest in a short call.
