About

Tom Weber, the managing director, photographer and producer at MILPICTURES, spent three years between as a “Jagdkampf” scout sniper in the Austrian Army and completed courses in survival, guerrilla warfare, among others. After his period of service in the armed forces, Tom completed a study course in film and photography and established his own film production company, Orange Films. He has always thought outside the box and has gained numerous prestigious international awardsand prizes for his advertising videos. Tom sold his company 2000 and worked as a freelance art director, producer and photographer until 2006 to broaden his artistic horizon.

In 2006, the artist came full circle and found his way back to his roots. His goal was for his new company, „MILPICTURES“, to film military and police Special Forces with a previously unknown intensity, quality and drama. Within two years „MILPICTURES by Tom Weber“ had established itself as one of the world’s best-knownmilitary photographers for staged military photography. Numerous international Special Forces and well-known arms manufacturers meanwhile count among his customers.
