MY PHOTOGRAPHY IS INCLUSIVE.
NOT EXCLUSIVE.
It is rooted in the concept of female totality.
Women are my primary source of inspiration—how we feel, act, appear, and shape the world around us.
The concept of female totality permeates all of my creative work, including:
NOOR WOMAN - Beyond appearance. Into presence.
FEMALE LEADERS - PORTRAYING WOMEN IN THEIR WORK CONTEXT / PERSONAL BRAND
PERSONAL PROJECTS:
FEMALE DIVERSITY - we’re not here to make you feel comfortable.

NOOR WOMAN
NOOR WOMAN
BEYOND APPEARANCE. INTO PRESENCE.
NOOR WOMAN is a portrait experience dedicated to revealing the essence of a woman beyond surface and expectation.
Each session is a quiet, guided encounter with presence—where light, expression, and stillness come together to reflect a woman’s individuality.
These are not images of how a woman looks, but of who she is.
Noor (from Arabic Nūr) means light—not physical light, but inner, conscious, and existential light. It refers to illumination, presence, and essence, similar to concepts like enlightenment, inner light, divine presence, or consciousness.
FEMALE LEADERS
FEMALE LEADERS
PORTRAITS OF WOMEN in their profession. Female leaders who are creators in their specific field. We need you. I love portraying you. You need to be seen. More.
“Frauen in ihrer ganzen Sichtbarkeit und individuellen Schönheit zu sehen und zu zeigen, das ist die Gabe von Sung-Hee Seewald . So kombiniert sie elegant fotografisches Können mit großer Emphatie, Stilsicherheit und einer klaren, ästhetischen Handschrift.
In einer warmherzigen, vertrauensvollen Atmosphäre gelingt es Sung-Hee, dass man ihr Studio nach dem Shooting verlässt und sich ein wenig schöner und stärker fühlt als vorher. Und genau das zeigen auch ihre Portraits.”

GÖTTINNEN // GODDESSES
Exploring the theme of female totality through the goddesses of greek mythology is my latest art work. In progress.
Images of this series had been curated for the exhibition FLOWER POWER at the Mandarin Oriental Munich. Exhibition is on until September 2023.
female diversity
FEMALE DIVERSITY
Why is female beauty so restrictedly represented in the omnipresent images?
Why are characteristics that the vast majority of women display considered flaws?
The one-sided representation of women is accepted and women try to adapt to the ideal instead of contradicting it.
We see female stereotypes in the media but what a female body really looks like is concealed.
Does the unknown or the unseen make us feel uncomfortable?
My work on FEMALE DIVERSITY shows the diverse female body. I stage natural body forms as artistic lines in the picture, with lines, wrinkles, curves and the smallest details in the skin. The beauty and individuality presented in this way should help to question our conditioned view.
