Family photographer in Erfurt: homestory, outdoor and studio shoots for natural, emotional family photos. Relaxed style, daylight studio, authentic memories.
As a family photographer based in Erfurt, my goal is to create images you will cherish for years. I'm Steffen — approachable, relaxed and focused on photographing families as they truly are. Whether it's a homestory at your home, a walk outdoors, or a session in my daylight-filled Altbau studio, I prioritize authenticity, closeness and emotion. My method is calm and unforced. I start with conversation, create a trusting atmosphere, and give your family room to be themselves. That relaxed approach reveals the small gestures, glances and laughter that make family photos feel real. Instead of rigid posing, I follow your interactions and capture the genuine moments that tell your story. Homestory sessions are a favorite — your home holds personal details and routines that result in intimate, meaningful images. For children and family portraits this means comfort, natural behavior and honest expressions. I also love working outdoors: local parks and green spots around Erfurt offer beautiful, playful backdrops for lively family photos. In the studio I use natural light to create clean, timeless family portraits. My style sits between natural, emotional and sensual — always with respect for the people in front of the camera. I take time to plan, advise on clothing and the flow of the shoot, and make sure children feel at ease while parents can relax. If you want family photos that go beyond posed pictures — images that capture memories and personality — get in touch with your ideas. Together we'll choose the location and format that suits you best. I look forward to telling your family's story in pictures.
