Hi, I’m Christoph Liebentritt – or, as my English teacher used to call me: Mr. Lovekick (sounds like a questionable wrestling move, but it’s just the literal translation of my last name – and I’m not complaining.)

I’m a photographer and producer based in Vienna, specializing in portrait, commercial, and documentary photography. Analog or digital? I love both.

From 2019 to 2024, I was a co-founder and managing director of the advertising agency buero butter. During this time, we produced award-winning projects both nationally and internationally, and were voted by the Creativ Club Austria as one of the top three most creative agencies in Austria. We also won the National Advertising Award from the Austrian Ministry of Labor and Economy, as well as several awards at the Art Directors Club of Europe.

Since 2024, I co-founded IYKYK, a daylight studio located in Vienna, where I am now one of the managing directors.

I work with brands, media, and agencies.
