Maja Koos Fotografie

I'm Maja — a family photographer based in Templin who loves capturing genuine, tender moments. My family photography focuses on real life: sibling laughter, the tiny hand of a newborn, children playing in golden hour light. I work exclusively on location because familiar places — your home, a meadow at sunset, a favorite park — bring out the most honest, lasting images. My approach is intuitive and calm. I take time to get to know you, observe small interactions and capture them naturally. I keep equipment unobtrusive so there's little between you and the lens; the goal is for your family to feel at ease. I’m drawn to warm, slightly vintage tones, soft evening light and candid moments that show personalities rather than posed perfection. With children and baby shoots I prioritize patience and playfulness: short breaks, walks and small games help children relax and be themselves. For maternity portraits I aim for quiet, intimate images that honor this special time. Photos are delivered via a protected online gallery for easy sharing and selection, and I can design beautiful photo books on request — ideal as gifts or family keepsakes. Based in the Uckermark, I accept assignments across Berlin & Brandenburg; travel outside Templin may incur travel costs. If you prefer, we can have a quick phone or video call before the session to make everyone feel comfortable. If you’re looking for a family photographer who values natural, emotional storytelling and captures your family’s story with care, get in touch. Say hello — I’d love to tell your story in pictures.
