What’s a typical photo shoot with you like?

I’ll simply spend a few hours, half a day, or a full day with you. We’ll chat and have a good time together. Every so often, I’ll step back and quietly document your authentic moments from a distance. If you ever get stuck, I’ll offer a little guidance. This way, we’ll blend candid moments with timeless portraits. While we’ll definitely make ourselves comfortable at home, we’ll also plan a short outing or a small activity.

What is documentary family photography?

Documentary family photography captures life as it is – real and unposed. The focus is on the small, precious everyday moments that will still feel like 'you' years from now.

My approach is a blend of quiet observation and gentle guidance. During the shoot, I capture the unposed, spontaneous, and quiet moments of your everyday life. But to make sure you feel completely at ease, I’ll also offer some light guidance and, in between, create relaxed, timeless portraits.

Do you also offer newborn sessions?

I do! For example, my “Short Story” sessions are perfect for newborn photoshoots at your home. The slightly longer half-day shoots are also a great option—especially if there are other children in the house and we have more time to capture the whole new family dynamic.

When will I receive my photos?

What if the kids misbehave during the session?

I’ll send you a small preview within a few days. You’ll receive your full gallery about 2–4 weeks after our session, depending on the type of shoot you booked.

Do I need to tidy up my home beforehand?

No, your home is perfect just the way it is. The kids are going to play and bring their things out anyway. Besides, the most authentic photos emerge from the mix of everyday life and a bit of clutter. I’ll be there with my eye for composition and light, beautifully capturing your life as it is—imperfect yet beautiful.

Don’t worry! I have two kids myself and know what it’s like. There’s no pressure here: the kids are free to do their own thing, which usually puts everyone at ease. They can play and move around freely while I simply capture them and their world just as they are. I won’t ask them to smile stiffly at the camera or act differently than they normally do.

Of course, things can still get chaotic: tantrums and a bit of a mess are just part of the deal. It’s precisely these genuine moments that often make for the most powerful images.
