Photography by Pavlina

Why choose Photography by Pavlina for your family photos? Because family photography here is storytelling—not just pretty pictures. Based in Regensburg, I focus on capturing the intimate, everyday moments that become treasured memories: quiet cuddles at home, siblings laughing together, the tiny details of a newborn. My work aims for timeless, emotive images that still move you years from now. My approach is calm and personal. I primarily shoot lifestyle homestories and outdoor sessions, and I can arrange a daylight studio if you prefer. Before the session we’ll connect by email or video call, I’ll send a comprehensive style guide for outfits and locations, and we’ll plan the shoot so you feel prepared. During the session I give gentle guidance rather than stiff poses—children are children, and the best images often come when they forget the camera and just play. Safety, comfort and closeness matter most in my newborn and maternity work. Newborn sessions are typically relaxed homestories in the first weeks after birth; I work around feeding and soothing so everything feels natural. Maternity sessions celebrate the beauty of pregnancy with soft light and considered styling to highlight this special moment. The process is simple: hello → planning call → relaxed session at home, outdoors or in a hired daylight studio → online gallery of edited images within about two weeks. My goal is that you enjoy the experience and receive honest, beautifully composed images that tell your family’s story. As a mother and storyteller with a love for design, I care deeply about the details and the emotional truth of each moment. If you want family photos that feel real, tender and timeless, let’s create them together.
