Hennecke-Film und Fotografie Schmallenberg

As a family photographer based in Schmallenberg, my passion is capturing genuine, unstaged moments of your family. From darkroom days to today’s digital workflow, I have refined techniques that produce images showing personality, closeness and everyday life. Why choose me: I work calmly and professionally. Whether it’s a relaxed afternoon in the park, an energetic children’s birthday session or quiet newborn portraits — I aim to create a comfortable atmosphere where kids can be themselves and parents can relax. Personal dialogue is essential: in a pre-shoot conversation we clarify your wishes, locations, outfits and special ideas so the session fits your family. My approach blends documentary-style photography with carefully composed portraits, resulting in both spontaneous moments and intentional family images. Children’s photography requires patience, humour and flexibility — I take time, adapt to children’s rhythms and often use familiar props or favourite clothing to evoke genuine reactions. I use technology and post-processing thoughtfully to enhance mood without overpowering the image, keeping the look natural and timeless. My experience as a photographer and videographer also allows me to combine photos with short film clips if you want moving memories in addition to still images. It’s important to me that families feel comfortable — from first contact through the shoot to choosing the final images. Trust, reliability and open conversation are the foundation of my work. If you want warm, natural family photos that tell stories and show relationships, I look forward to hearing from you and capturing your special moments.
