Documentary Family Photography in Zurich

Relaxed and enjoyable sessions

Would you like authentic pictures as a memento of your family life? Photos that capture personality and the full spectrum of emotions? Photos that focus on real interactions and unposed moments? Then documentary family photography is the right choice for you.

I believe we shouldn’t strive for perfection, but rather for presence. This applies not only to life in general, but is also my core approach to family photography.

That's why these sessions unfold naturally within your family’s daily routine. While my focus is on a mostly documentary style, I do step in and provide some gentle guidance as needed, or include a few traditional portraits. My goal is to find the beauty in the ordinary and document the moments you’ll want to remember most.

Words of Love

  • "Henna's photographic style captured the naturalness of our new family life and told an emotional story."

    Daniela

  • She has a talent for capturing wonderful little scenes from everyday life with her lens. I still love looking at them years later.

    Theresa

  • "It is becoming a beautiful yearly tradition to record our family's memories with Henna. She spots and captures those precious moments of every day without you even realizing she is there. She makes everyone feel at ease, even my children who don't like strangers, were instantly drawn to her."
