Fotografin Elise Fildebrandt

As a family photographer based in Winsen, I tell your story through calm, honest images: natural, emotional and true. I’m Elise — a mother of two — and that sensitivity to small, unstaged moments guides my work. I focus on creating family photographs that feel real and that you’ll want to return to again and again. Families who want warm, authentic memories rather than posed perfection will find my approach a perfect fit. My style blends documentary observation with gentle direction. I watch, accompany and only step in when a slight nudge helps create a meaningful image. Working with children requires playfulness and patience — qualities I bring to every session. Whether it’s family portraits outdoors, tender children’s portraits, or special days like baptisms, communions or birthdays, my priority is capturing connection and personality. I also offer kindergarten photography, designed to keep the day familiar and fun for the children. How I work: we start with a short conversation so I understand your wishes and family dynamics. On the day I create a relaxed atmosphere where laughter, closeness and calm can unfold. Many of my images are made outdoors — in gardens, on playgrounds or in the Lüneburg Heath — where natural light and space to move create lively, honest photos. After the session I carefully edit the images to achieve a timeless look and deliver them via a password-protected online gallery. Why choose me: I combine professional experience with genuine warmth. My open, relaxed manner builds trust — especially with children — so you can be yourselves in front of the camera. If you’re looking for natural, emotional family photos in Winsen and the surrounding area, I’d love to capture your story from my perspective. Get in touch and let’s talk about your family memories.
