Family photos in Essen — I, Diane Heidrich, create sensitive sessions for families, children and newborns. Individual, relaxed shoots by appointment only.
As a family photographer in Essen I combine decades of studio experience with a calm, personal approach that is especially important for children and newborns. At Foto Seydel I help families capture natural connections, small gestures and genuine emotions — without forced poses, with patience and sensitivity. My goal is that your family photos reflect personality and togetherness rather than standard poses. Whether a relaxed studio session in Holsterhausen or location portraits in a nearby park, I take time for a pre-shoot consultation, advise on style and composition, and create a relaxed, trusting atmosphere during the shoot. With babies and toddlers, this patience pays off: small games, a favorite toy or blanket often create the most touching images. With experience in portrait and newborn photography I understand how lighting, posing and cropping work together so images shine both as prints and digital files. If desired, we review shots together on the monitor and choose the best images. I can also prepare your chosen photos professionally for display — for example as canvas prints — so your memories find a permanent place on the wall. In addition to family photography I offer portrait and newborn sessions and also work as a wedding photographer in Essen. This versatility means I know how to recognise and document the moments that hold families together. All sessions are by appointment only so we can plan everything according to your wishes. If you are looking for an experienced, empathetic family photographer in Essen, I look forward to hearing from you. Together we will create a photo session that tells your family story — personal, timeless and crafted with attention to detail.
