LAV Fotostudio Aleksandra Sotnikova

Hello, I’m Aleksandra — your family photographer at LAV Fotostudio. My specialization is sensitive, modern family photography: I capture the small gestures, genuine laughter and the real connections between parents, children and grandparents. I believe the best images arise in a calm, trusting environment — which is why your comfort during the session matters as much to me as the final photograph. My approach blends gentle direction with authenticity. I offer subtle posing guidance, encourage natural movement and leave space for spontaneous moments. The result is a balanced mix of carefully composed portraits and lively documentary-style images that tell your family’s story in a timeless way. Children are involved playfully and patiently so their individuality can shine through. Sessions take place either in my welcoming studio in Hockenheim or outdoors, depending on your preference. After the shoot you receive a link to a private online gallery where you can comfortably choose your favorites. I professionally edit the selected images with a flattering, natural retouch — enhancing without overdoing it. I also provide maternity (baby‑bump) sessions and offer loan dresses to create elegant images that honour this special time. While family photography is my primary focus, I also photograph children and portraits as complementary services. Why choose LAV Fotostudio? Because I combine experience, attention to detail and a warm, patient manner — qualities that make all the difference in family and children photography. If you want natural, contemporary family photos you’ll cherish for years, I’d love to create them with you.
