As a family photographer in Mühlhausen I capture genuine family moments — natural children and baby photos, baptisms and communions in a relaxed setting.
I’m Michelle Kossert — a family photographer based in Mühlhausen who focuses on honest, unstaged family photography that reflects everyday closeness. As a wedding photographer in Mühlhausen I accompany couples on their big day, and that documentary experience directly informs my family work: I observe attentively and look for the small, emotional moments that become your most treasured memories. My style is natural and lively. I prefer available light and enjoy outdoor locations with character — whether the green surroundings near Berlin, urban backdrops or your favorite familiar spot. Children’s photography for me means creating space for play, laughter and unexpected moments. For newborn and baby portraits I work with patience, calm and an eye for delicate details; for baptisms, communions or birthday parties I document the atmosphere and traditions discreetly. The process is simple: we talk about your wishes beforehand, pick the right time and place, and shape the session so everyone feels comfortable. With families and young children I use playful prompts, encourage cuddles and silliness — often the best photos come from those moments. I also offer recurring sessions to document children’s growth over time, similar to longterm family projects I’ve been privileged to photograph. Why choose me: I don’t stage — I observe. I prioritise authenticity, warm natural editing and respectful handling of your private moments. My images tell small stories — from sibling love to quiet family glances. Rooted in Mühlhausen, I know lovely locations for natural family photography and am flexible to bring your ideas to life. If you’re looking for relaxed, genuine family images — whether baby photography, newborn portraits, kids’ photos, baptism or communion coverage — I’d love to hear from you. Let’s create a photoshoot that shows your family as it truly is.
