Design Lab Iryna Brandl

As a family photographer, Iryna (Ira) at Design Lab focuses on capturing authentic feeling, calm and closeness. Her strengths are maternity and newborn photography as well as baby and portrait sessions — the moments that bind families across generations. Rather than heavily posed shots, Ira prefers a warm, understated approach: gentle direction, patience and attention to the small gestures and glances that tell a story. Why choose Design Lab? Ira combines technical skill with a sensitive working style. She creates a relaxed environment where even shy or very young subjects feel safe. Her imagery is natural, timeless and emotionally driven — perfect for families who want honest photos that show everyday intimacy rather than staged perfection. How she works: A short pre-session conversation clarifies style, colors and any special wishes (for example maternity portraits or first days with a newborn). During the shoot Ira offers calm structure: short, relaxed sessions with breaks, attention to detail and a focus on closeness. For newborn sessions she brings experience in handling infants safely, using natural poses and soft light. After the session Ira carefully selects the best images and edits them with sensitivity so tones, mood and expression remain harmonious. Design Lab sees family photography as more than image-making: it’s memory work. Whether you plan a maternity session, newborn photos or emotional family portraits, Ira accompanies you personally with empathy and a creative eye. Her work is characterized by respect, professionalism and a joy in preserving important life moments photographically. If you want natural, intimate family photos where atmosphere and feeling matter, Design Lab brings the experience and warmth needed to create images you’ll cherish.
