LUCA GERCKE

Known as a wedding photographer in Marburg an der Lahn, I bring the same eye for real moments and emotional detail to my family photography. I’m Luca — my ambition is to tell family stories in an authentic, elegant and timeless visual language. My style sits between documentary photojournalism and editorial portraiture: I look for natural moments, texture, light and the quiet color tones that make a day feel real. Why choose me? Because I create calm and trust during a session. Family photos work best when everyone feels comfortable — so I keep sessions relaxed and unforced. For newborn and baby shoots I usually come to your home and avoid kitschy props or rigid posing. The result are images that honestly reflect your connections and daily life: children playing, tender looks, and the small details from baptisms, communions or birthday moments. How I work: I like to meet or have a video call beforehand so I understand your wishes and the day’s flow. During the session I give gentle, practical direction, focusing on natural expressions and capturing candid interactions. My gear (including Nikon Z9 and Leica Q2) and my digital editing celebrate film-like warmth while maintaining realistic colors. My goal is that your photos instantly transport you back to the moment. Whether it’s family portraits, children’s photography, newborns, maternity or special family occasions such as baptisms and communions — I’ll accompany you with care, discretion and creativity. As a wedding photographer specialized in emotional reportage, I value trust and subtlety — the same approach I bring to every family session.
