Sophie's Fotowelt

I’m Sophie — a family photographer based in Halver who loves to tell your family’s story through honest, emotional images. Specialising in family, newborn and maternity photography, I focus on natural light, real interactions and a calm atmosphere where everyone — from babies to grandparents — feels comfortable. Why choose me? I don’t chase staged poses; I look for genuine moments: spontaneous laughter, tender touches and the little details that still move you years from now. My approach is warm, sincere and sensitive, especially when working with children and newborns. I guide even camera-shy families with gentle prompts so natural portraits emerge. How I work: we start with a friendly conversation — by message, phone or in person — to discuss your wishes and the best locations. For maternity and family sessions I prefer early morning or evening light; newborn sessions are often held at home in a cozy, safe setting so baby and parents feel relaxed. During the session there’s no rush — giving time means the most beautiful, unposed moments appear. After the shoot you’ll receive a carefully designed online gallery to choose your favourites; I edit each image with attention to detail to create a warm, timeless style you’ll love. A session with me is more than pictures — it’s a keepsake for the future. Whether maternity portraits, the first days with your newborn or family photos that grow with you: I capture the small moments that hold the biggest feelings. If you’re looking for authentic, heartfelt family photography in a trusting atmosphere, I’d be honoured to capture your memories.
