Based in Homburg, Kirsten Leonhardt creates natural family portraits in a relaxed, documentary style—capturing genuine moments, children and newborns with sensitivity.
I’m Kirsten from dkay-dsign — a family photographer working from Homburg since 2008. My work focuses on honest, unposed family moments that convey the warmth and character of your everyday life. I prefer a documentary, reportage style that highlights real interactions over staged poses, creating images that feel timeless and true to you. What sets my approach apart is a balance of calm observation and gentle direction. I build a relaxed atmosphere where children can play freely and parents can be themselves. Instead of posing rigidly, I look for natural gestures, spontaneous smiles and intimate moments — the little details that bring your family story to life. Alongside family sessions, I also photograph newborns, maternity and children with particular care and patience. These complementary offerings support the main focus: documenting families through the stages of life. Each shoot is handled with sensitivity to the needs of babies and young children, ensuring a comfortable experience for everyone. The process is simple: contact me via the form on my website (required due to GDPR), we talk through your wishes, location and timing, and then I capture your family where you feel most at ease — at home, outdoors or at a meaningful spot. I pay attention to light, mood and candid interactions to create authentic family photos. After the session I carefully select and lightly edit the best images so the true character of your family remains.
