Ronny Behnert has been actively working in photography since January of 2007. The award winning architecture- and landscape photographer founded Håggard Photography in 2010 and continues to grow the brand today. His clientele includes hotels, restaurants, various newspapers, lifestyle, print and digital-magazines.
While continuously developing his skills and knowledge, Ronny never wants to lose his amateur spirit. To ground himself in his artwork, he tries to spend as much time as possible exploring the world. Recent series and photos from Scandinavia, United Arab Emirates, Spain, Japan and Venice, Italy have already been published in prestigious, national and international photo magazines.
His work has been awarded with the Sony World Photography Award, the german Photographer of the Year Award, the International Photography Award and the Monochrome Award. He also has been shortlisted for the Felix Schoeller Photoaward, was a finalist for the European Professional Photographer of the Year Award and has been nominated for the B&W Spider Awards and the International Color Awards, to name a few.
Beginning in 2019, Ronny also works as Co-Photographer and ambassador for the filter brand Haida. He also was chosen as ambassador for Samyang Lens between 2020 / 2021.

“Working in the business since the age of 2, the 27-year-old already seems to be an old hand. His images show remarkable maturity and diversity. Whether portraits, nature scenes, architecture photos or street art. Ronny Behnert is a conscientious observer.”
