Light and care guide the work of PS photo studio Barbara Gerlach in Gera. As an experienced family photographer, Barbara combines more than twenty years of practice with a warm, personal approach: her images tell stories and capture calm, natural moments both in the studio and on location. Why choose Barbara: Family photography is a matter of the heart. Working independently since 1996 and with her own studio since 2009, she understands that trust and relaxation are essential for authentic family photos. As a one-woman operation she works directly with clients from planning to image selection, giving each family the time and attention true moments deserve. What makes her approach special: Barbara favours natural posing and gentle communication over rigid directions. Whether newborn studio portraits, tender maternity (babybauch) sessions or lively children’s photos, her style is clear, warm and attentive to detail. She creates a relaxed environment where children can be themselves and genuine connections appear on camera. How she works with clients: A short pre-session consultation clarifies your wishes and the best setting (studio or outdoor). On the day of the shoot Barbara ensures a calm atmosphere, offers subtle guidance and captures spontaneous, real moments. Afterwards she supports you personally in choosing your favourite images — either in the studio or through an arranged presentation. Location & values: Based in Gera and serving the Ostthüringen region, Barbara values close client relationships. Her guiding belief is simple: photographs should preserve stories. If you’re looking for natural, timeless family photos created with sensitivity toward children and an eye for small gestures, PS photo studio Barbara Gerlach is a reliable choice.
