Torsten Dickmann - Wedding Photographer Seychelles
torsten dickmann - the "photo man"!
wedding photographer seychelles
Photography and traveling: These two insatiable passions have been with me for over 30 years now and I am extremely happy that I made both passions my profession in 2005! I am now known far beyond the borders of my home country as a “photo man” . Even in the Seychelles I am called “photo man” by many locals… 🙂
When I am asked about my favorite travel destinations, the names of sun-drenched island paradises immediately come to mind: French Polynesia, the Cook Islands, the Maldives and of course the much-loved Seychelles – these are my very own personal paradises that I love to travel to time and time again!
At the end of the 1980s, I first became aware of the German photographer Michael Friedel, born in 1935, who achieved world fame with his photographs of the world’s most beautiful beaches. His photographs awakened the travel bug in me. I wanted to explore such beautiful destinations myself and bring home equally beautiful photographs. Already during my first trip, I realized that with my simple “camera box” and the very limited photographic knowledge I had at the time, I could not bring back the pictures I wanted and began to immerse myself intensively in the infinite and incredibly fascinating subject of photography.
A few years and several hundred thousand releases later, my own photographs of the world’s most beautiful beaches were exhibited and have been distributed throughout Europe ever since. In 2005 I photographed the wedding of good friends on Mallorca – and since that day I have not only been obsessed with the island, but also with weddings! I had discovered my great passion!
Shortly thereafter, I turned my greatest passion into a career and have since photographed more than 700 weddings (as of May 2026) across four continents. I photograph weddings in the Seychelles particularly often, because my unconventional and relaxed visual style—in which, to quote a very sweet bride whose wedding I had the privilege of photographing on La Digue, arguably the most beautiful island in the Seychelles— “the bride and groom and the landscape blend together so perfectly and shine as brightly as the sun that every photo is instantly recognizable as a ‘genuine Dickmann’” has ensured that I now accompany many weddings in the Seychelles as a photographer (and, upon request, also as an interpreter, travel consultant, and “island guide”). I now even photograph significantly more weddings in the Seychelles than back home in Germany. I now spend more than 5 months a year in the Seychelles (about 90% of that time on the gorgeous island of La Digue) and just can’t get enough of my dream islands! ♥
