Family photography in Rastede: empathetic family, baby and children portraits in a relaxed atmosphere—studio, at home or outdoors. Natural, heartfelt memories.
As an experienced photographic designer based in Rastede, family photography is one of my greatest passions. After professional training and studies in communication design with a focus on photography, I have run my own studio since 1997. I combine a strong sense for composition with a calm, respectful approach—producing natural, lively family photos that capture real moments and relationships. Why families choose me: I work patiently and sensitively. Whether newborns, babies, children or family celebrations such as baptisms and communions, I focus on showing people as they really are. Children are spontaneous—moving, laughing, reacting—and I aim to capture that immediacy rather than stage it. In home stories I document everyday life, in the studio I create quiet intimacy, and on location I use light and surroundings to craft natural portraits. The result are images that still move you years later. My approach is personal and unobtrusive. Before each session we discuss your wishes so the shoot is tailored to your family. With young children I keep things playful and flexible; with newborns I allow for calm, gentle pacing. I give clear, gentle direction when helpful and otherwise observe to catch spontaneous moments. A relaxed, appreciative atmosphere is central so everyone feels comfortable. As a wedding photographer in Rastede and experienced business photographer I also bring a professional eye for composition and visual storytelling. That expertise ensures your family photos are both aesthetically pleasing and timeless—without losing the natural, candid character. If you want living, authentic family photos that preserve personality, closeness and little details, I look forward to hearing from you. Tell me your story and together we’ll find the style and place that suits you best.
