Family-focused photographer from Jülich who captures authentic, emotional moments. Cozy studio or natural outdoor sessions — relaxed, personal and warm.
At SD‑Fotografie the family is at the heart of everything I do. I’m Swetlana — a mother and family photographer based in Jülich — and my work is driven by patience, trust and authentic emotion. My goal is not to create posed images, but to preserve the fleeting moments that tell your story: tender looks, joyful laughter while cuddling, and the quiet wonder of a newborn. My visual style is natural, warm and emotional. In the studio I cultivate a cozy, relaxed environment where children and parents quickly feel at ease. Outdoors I make use of soft, natural light to produce lively family photos that feel spontaneous and true to life. As a parent myself, I know how quickly time passes — especially with newborns and young children — and I therefore work calmly and sensitively. Breaks for feeding, changing and cuddles are part of the process; we go at your child’s pace. The process is personal and clear: before the session we discuss your wishes, color preferences and the overall mood you want for your images. I offer guidance on outfits and practical tips to ensure a harmonious result. During the shoot I stay relaxed and unobtrusive, encouraging natural interactions and capturing genuine moments. Afterward you receive a password‑protected online gallery to review and choose the images you’d like finalized and edited. Why choose SD‑Fotografie? Because I bring a deep understanding of family life, the empathy of a fellow parent, and a commitment to timeless, emotive photography. Whether it’s maternity, newborn or a family session, I create a welcoming atmosphere, give you the time you need, and deliver images that will keep your memories alive for generations.
