Officially, she answers to Sandra Schwaiger. Unofficially, she’s Sandy — and has been dreaming of becoming a photographer since she was 16. At first, life had other plans. Many years in brand design and visual communication shaped her eye and her sense for light, color, framing — for narrative, atmosphere, subtle gestures, and the invisible threads that tie a scene together.
But some calls don’t go away. This one wanted to be heard. It simply insisted on being lived.
Her work circles around portraiture, fragments of life, visual storytelling, and the deliberate staging of fashion and style. She is drawn to people. She loves her encounters with individuals, cultures, and places — them short moments life offers, the ones that quietly write history if you are searching for it and ready to dance. She seeks depth and style, convinced that beauty, fashion, and design aren’t mere surfaces but can open doors to something more profound.
Sandy is based in Vienna, Austria, but a frequent traveller, always following where the stories lead. Please feel free to reach out for inquiries and collaborations.
