Liebäugeln Fotografie

Hi, I’m Miriam from Nippes — I love what I do and for over 17 years I’ve been photographing families with care and attention. As an experienced family photographer and also a wedding photographer based in Cologne, my passion is to capture the small, quiet and big moments of family life in warm, authentic images. My approach to family photography centers on closeness, security and authenticity. Homestories are my favorite format: at your home or at a meaningful location, I create pictures that not only look beautiful but truly reflect your relationships, routines and the laughter of your children. I work unobtrusively, observing and giving gentle prompts so everyone — even the camera-shy — feels at ease. Children’s photography requires patience, empathy and playfulness. I follow your child’s rhythm, bring a sense of fun and calm, and allow real moments to happen — cheeky looks, wild play, tender hugs — captured without heavy staging. Newborn and baby photography is handled with the same sensitivity: respectful, gentle and attentive to the soft light that makes these moments magical. I also accompany special family events like baptisms or birthdays when you want the day’s atmosphere preserved in honest images. My style is natural, warm and narrative — I tell your family’s story in pictures that still evoke emotion years from now. Before every session we have a personal conversation so I can tailor the shoot to your needs and make it as relaxed as possible. Whether a homestory, a walk in the park or an energetic family shoot, I bring calm, experience and an open, friendly manner. If you’re looking for natural family photography in Nippes and the surrounding area — from pregnancy and newborns to children and family portraits — I’d love to hear from you. Let’s create memories that last.
