Family photography by Katharina “Katta” Dressen: natural, emotional images in-studio or outdoors. Specialised in family, newborn and baby photography with gentle guidance.
I’m Katharina – called Katta – and as a family photographer my priority is to capture genuine, timeless memories you’ll treasure for years. As a mother of two and with more than 12 years of experience, I know how to make children and new parents feel comfortable in front of the camera. My work combines calmness, patience and a sensitive eye for the small, fleeting moments that make family life unique. Why choose me? Because I tell your story authentically and warmly. I prefer to photograph newborns in my studio, which is specifically prepared for the needs of newborns: warm, cosy and equipped with carefully chosen props and handcrafted pieces that give each image character. For families and older children I often shoot outdoors — children can move freely, play and show natural expressions, and those spontaneous moments are the ones I love to capture. My approach is always personal and empathetic. Before every session we have a detailed consultation so I can understand your wishes and expectations. During the session I create a relaxed atmosphere: for newborn shoots parents can relax on a comfy couch with refreshments, breaks are taken as needed, and I work patiently to accommodate your baby’s rhythm. For outdoor family sessions I give gentle guidance and allow space for spontaneous interaction — that’s where the most honest pictures happen. Technical quality and post-production are important tools to me: I provide careful, professional retouching and a timeless visual style. After the shoot you’ll receive a link to an online gallery so you can review and choose your images at your convenience. I am a member of a professional association for children’s photographers and bring this expertise into every session. My aim is not only to deliver beautiful images, but to make the session itself a warm, memorable experience. If you’d like to preserve your family moments in honest, loving photographs, I’d be delighted to meet you.
