Swiss Photographer & Creative Director
A photographer drawn to people, places, light, and the feeling of being somewhere - best known for the internationally acclaimed Travelling Cars series, in which tiny vintage toy cars set out on grand miniature adventures.
From personal projects to international commissions, a practice built around curiosity, playfulness, and slowing things down to notice what might otherwise pass by.
A selection of brands and publications that have featured Kim's work.
Kim Leuenberger is a photographer, creative director, and endlessly curious observer of the world, based in Lucerne, Switzerland. Photography has taken her across coastlines, up mountains, and along unfamiliar roads - yet her work always returns to the same things: people, places, light, and the feeling of being somewhere.
Growing up in Switzerland's Jura region, she inherited a love for adventure and has spent much of her life following it. She works with both analogue and digital cameras, approaching photography with curiosity and playfulness.
From a first DSLR in Switzerland to an internationally recognised photographic practice.
Kim Leuenberger was born in 1992 in the Jura region of northwestern Switzerland, growing up with a love of adventure inherited from her parents and grandparents.
At nineteen she received her first DSLR and began teaching herself photography, drawn to all things vintage and the stories objects carry.
The Travelling Cars series - miniature vintage toy cars photographed in scenic landscapes - gained international attention, featured by The Guardian, BBC, Der Spiegel, ABC News, and Lonely Planet.
Her work was exhibited for five years at the Museum der Kulturen Basel, and she began collaborating with brands including Leica, Netflix, Audi, Swatch, and Huawei.
After studying photography at London College of Communication, University of the Arts London, Kim now works as a photographer and creative director from Lucerne.
