schwarz-foto

Based in Esslingen, schwarz-foto specialises in family photography that captures the real, everyday moments between parents and children. My approach is calm, unobtrusive and focused on authenticity: I prefer natural interactions over forced poses so your images reflect genuine connection and feeling. Why choose me? I am a trained photographer with experience photographing families in and around Esslingen and the Stuttgart region. Working with children and newborns requires patience, sensitivity and a light touch — qualities I bring to every session. Whether you want newborn portraits, baby photography, children's portraits, baptism or communion images, or lively birthday reportage, I create a relaxed setting where true moments can unfold. How I work: We start with a short consultation to understand your wishes and the mood you want. Sessions can take place at home, outdoors at a favourite spot, or in a simple studio environment. During the shoot I stay calm and supportive, giving gentle direction so you can relax and be yourselves. With kids I use playful prompts and short, engaging sequences to capture their personality without stress. After the shoot I carefully edit and handcraft the photo selection. You will receive a password-protected online gallery to download your images and order prints or albums if desired. My post‑processing aims to enhance mood and colour while keeping the images natural and timeless — no heavy retouching, just honest photography. I serve Esslingen and the surrounding Stuttgart area and am happy to travel within Baden‑Württemberg for special locations. If you want family photos that feel true and lasting, I’d love to meet you and plan a session that matches your story. Get in touch and let’s create memories you’ll cherish.
