Carmen Kunstmann Fotografie

As a portrait, newborn and children photographer, my main focus is capturing genuine, natural moments. I work calmly, patiently and with empathy — and I bring this same care to maternity sessions. Although pregnancy photography is a complementary offering for me, every shoot receives the same attention and respect as my core work. Why choose me: I create a relaxed environment where expecting mothers can feel at ease. My visual style favors authenticity over staged poses — I aim to document the anticipation, connection and individuality of this special time. My experience with portraits, newborns and children means I understand how important trust, time and sensitivity are during intimate moments. My approach: Before a maternity session we talk about your wishes and coordinate outfits, locations and the mood you want to convey. Whether it’s a homestory at your place, an outdoor walk, or a quiet studio appointment, we pick the setting that suits you. During the session I prioritize comfort: we take breaks, allow for quiet moments and work with simple prompts and natural movement. Small details — a barefoot moment in the grass, soft music or unhurried pauses — often produce the most touching images. Delivery: After the shoot you will receive a password-protected online gallery where you can calmly select your favorite images. Professional editing and careful retouching are included. Since maternity sessions are an additional service in my portfolio, scope and image selection remain flexible and tailored to your needs. My motivation: I love documenting life stages — from portraits to newborns and early childhood. Pregnancy is a fleeting, meaningful phase, and I’m honored to preserve it in sensitive, timeless photographs. I look forward to meeting you and helping tell your story through images.
