LB Fotografie Laura Benninghoff

I’m Laura from LB Fotografie, a family photographer based in Bergheim (Rhein‑Erft district). I specialise in natural, unposed family photography that captures relationships and emotions — from newborn sessions at home to children’s portraits and family celebrations like baptisms, communions or birthdays. My aim is to create images that feel honest and timeless. My background includes working as a newborn photographer in a Cologne hospital and several years in a forest kindergarten, experiences that taught me patience and how to work sensitively with babies and children. This calm, understanding approach shapes every shoot: I give space for breaks, follow the pace of little ones, and focus on creating a relaxed atmosphere where genuine moments can happen. I prefer using natural light and outdoor locations because they make families and children look alive and comfortable. I edit with a light touch so the results remain authentic rather than overly retouched. If you feel unsure in front of the camera, I guide you with friendly direction and small prompts so you can relax and be yourselves. The process is personal and straightforward: we talk through your ideas, I advise on locations and outfits, and we plan a session that suits your family. Whether you want classic family portraits, newborn photography at home, children’s photos or documentation of special family events, I bring warmth, experience and a mobile setup to the shoot. I’m based in the Rhein‑Erft‑Kreis and available for bookings across Germany. If you’re looking for natural family photos that will still move you years from now, get in touch — I’d love to meet you and capture your family’s moments.
