Janine Piontek Fotografie

As a family photographer based in Lüdinghausen, I focus on images that tell your story honestly—without staged poses or pressure. My approach is documentary and child-led: I observe, accompany and capture the small, true moments that become the most treasured memories. Whether it’s everyday life at home, a playful afternoon in the garden, or the quiet moments after a birth, I’m there like a close friend—unobtrusive and with great sensitivity. Why choose me? As a mother of four, I know how family life works and how important patience, calm and space are for children to relax. I give them the time they need, and that leads to natural, relaxed photos of kids playing, creating, cuddling or just being together. For newborn sessions I prefer a documentary approach at your home—gentle, respectful and never artificially posed—because real intimacy speaks louder than perfect staging. I work with families across the Münsterland region who want honest and aesthetic imagery: newborns, baby and children’s photos, coverage of baptisms and communions, as well as portraits from birthday celebrations or family gatherings. We start with a conversation to clarify your wishes and plan a relaxed session. On the day I create an atmosphere where you can simply be yourselves. After the shoot I carefully select and lovingly edit the images so you receive a cohesive gallery ready for both digital use and print. My photos should not only please—they should tell who you are as a family. If you’re looking for natural, unstaged family photography in Lüdinghausen, I’d love to meet you and make your story visible.
