Sandra Herzog Fotografie

I’m Sandra — a qualified photo designer (HAF), mother of three and a dedicated family photographer based in Vechta. My photography is about honest, unforced moments: laughter, small touches, and everyday warmth. I aim for images that tell your family’s story rather than staged portraits. My preferred approach is calm and observant: I spend time with you, accompany you to favorite places, or photograph a homestory in your home where children feel safe and relaxed. With experience in family photography I combine documentary-style candid shots with gentle guidance — perfect for families with young children or newborns who don’t want long posed sessions. I shoot on location using natural light and focus on timeless, understated looks so your photos keep their feeling for years. Newborn and baby sessions are photographed with tenderness and sensitivity, usually in your comfort zone to ensure calm and authentic images. The process is personal and straightforward: we talk about your wishes and preferred locations beforehand. On the day I create a relaxed atmosphere, give soft prompts and watch for the perfect candid moments. Post-shoot I gently edit the images to preserve natural skin tones and colors — no heavy retouching, just true memories. I work with families in Vechta and the surrounding region as well as across Germany. While I also photograph weddings as a Hochzeitsfotografin in Vechta, on familienfotografie.online my focus is clearly on family work: children, maternity, newborns and milestone moments like baptisms or communions. If you want natural, heartfelt family photos that show you as you are, tell me about your family — I’d love to capture your story.
