As a family photographer in Gummersbach, Jan creates natural family portraits and baby/newborn sessions. Calm atmosphere, genuine moments and personal guidance.
Hi, I'm Jan — a family and wedding photographer based in Gummersbach. I love capturing the honest moments that make up family life: relaxed portraits at home, the first days with your newborn, and intimate couple or engagement sessions. My approach is calm and unobtrusive, giving you space to be yourselves so that authentic smiles and interactions come through naturally. Since I started my photography business part‑time in 2021, I've focused on family reportage and wedding coverage. My portfolio combines documentary sequences with crafted portraits because I believe the most meaningful images arise from real connections and atmosphere. My style blends candid storytelling with thoughtfully composed family shots, delivering a collection that reflects both memories and the mood of the moment. How I work: I get in touch before the session to discuss location, timing and your wishes — usually a short call or message is enough. During the shoot I prioritize a relaxed environment, natural light and gentle prompts so children and babies stay comfortable. I direct minimally and observe more, capturing the small glances, touches and in‑between moments that tell your story. Why choose me: I bring technical skill together with a sensitive eye for emotion. As someone who values family life myself, I understand how important images are that you’ll want to look at for years to come. Based in Gummersbach, I'm happy to shoot locally at your home, outdoors or at a meaningful place to you. If you want natural family photos or tender baby and newborn sessions with a personal, unobtrusive photographer, get in touch — I’d love to tell your story through images.
