Family photographer in Mainz: natural family, children and newborn photography. Markus Schöllhorn creates relaxed, authentic images that preserve memories.
At Fotostudio Lichtblicke Mainz my focus is on people — and families in particular. As an experienced people and wedding photographer based in Mainz, I know that trust and comfort are the foundation of genuine family photography. My goal is to capture unposed, honest moments — the small gestures, the laughter, the touches that later become treasured memories. I’m Markus Schöllhorn, a photographer from Mainz. For more than ten years I have photographed people: alongside my specialization as a wedding photographer I concentrate on family portraits, children, babies and newborn sessions. In the studio or outdoors along the Rhine I create a relaxed atmosphere where even lively children soon unwind. My approach is straightforward: I offer gentle direction, favor natural light and simple sets, and capture your authenticity without unnecessary fuss. How I work: before the shoot we talk about style and location — studio, your home or a favorite spot in Mainz. During the session I take my time, observe, loosen the mood with small games or music, and photograph the spontaneous moments that tell your family story. For newborns I use calm, safe procedures; with children I rely on patience and experience to achieve natural portraits. I also photograph occasions like baptisms, communions, school enrollment and birthdays. Why clients choose me: I combine technical expertise with empathy. Many families return regularly because they feel their personality is respected and thoughtfully photographed. You will receive carefully edited images ready for digital use or print. If you’re looking for natural family photography in Mainz that doesn’t feel staged, I’d be happy to hear from you. Whether a family portrait, baby or newborn shoot, I’ll accompany you with calm, experience and an eye for the decisive moments.
