Erinnerungs-Schmiede

Erinnerungs‑Schmiede combines professional photography with personal attention — because true memories need time and trust. Based in Gladbeck and known as a wedding photographer, we are equally specialised in family photography: from couple and family portraits to baby and newborn sessions, baptisms and communions. We focus on capturing authentic, unstaged moments that will move you years from now. Our process starts with a personal meeting. Over a cup of coffee we discuss your wishes, the desired style and the best location — whether relaxed outdoor portraits, a studio session or photos at your home. For family and children’s shoots we take the time that’s needed: a relaxed atmosphere, patience and short breaks help even shy children and new parents feel comfortable. Newborn sessions are planned with extra care and at times that fit your family’s routine. On the day of the shoot we work discreetly and calmly to create natural images full of emotion — not stiff poses, but real moments. After the session we carefully review and edit the images; you receive the selected photos digitally for download. If you prefer, we will present the pictures in person, as we did when we first met, ideally over another cup of coffee. Why choose Erinnerungs‑Schmiede? Because we treat photography as a collaborative process: bespoke offers instead of standard packages, personal advice instead of anonymity, and a focus on atmosphere as much as on technique. Whether family portraits, baby photography, children’s birthdays, baptisms or communions — we are your local partner in Gladbeck, working with calm, experience and heart. Get in touch for a non-binding conversation — we look forward to telling your story in pictures.
