Family photography in Telgte: Authentic, lively photos of children, parents and newborns—relaxed in studio or outdoors with photographer Heike Eickholt.
As a family photographer based in Telgte, my work is about capturing real, heartfelt moments: the laughter of play, the quiet gaze of a newborn, and the warmth of family togetherness. I’m Heike Eickholt, working independently since 2008. My photography is defined by a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, patience, and attention to small details—so your family photos feel fresh, lively and expressive. I prefer natural interaction over stiff posing: we play, explore the woods, have a picnic, or use my cosy studio with its large round window for beautiful natural light. For newborns I offer specially tailored sessions (like the “Mini Me special”)—handled gently with studio props and a calm pace that follows your baby’s rhythm. Before every shoot I consult extensively: we talk about location, wardrobe ideas and the style you want—documentary, natural, or gently stylised. My studio provides a homely backdrop, while outdoor shoots benefit from authentic light and places that suit your family. With children, spontaneity and play are the best ingredients for genuine, moving photos. My background includes newborn work on the maternity ward at EVK Münster and many years of experience across family, children and wedding photography. That experience brings calm and confidence to every session. I take the time needed so you can relax and the resulting images reflect who you really are. If you’re looking for family photos that keep your memories alive—natural, emotional and full of life—get in touch. Together we’ll create timeless images you’ll love.
