Elena Riehl Photography

As a dedicated maternity photographer based in Niendorf (Hamburg), I focus on preserving the unique emotions of pregnancy in calm, timeless images. My style is intentionally minimal and sensitive: soft natural light, neutral backdrops and carefully chosen outfits create a serene aesthetic that highlights you and your baby bump. Drawing from my own experience as a mother and years of maternity photography, I aim to create photos that feel true — capturing intimacy, anticipation and quiet joy. Every session begins with personal consultation: together we plan styling, poses and the colour palette so the results reflect your personality. My private studio in Niendorf is designed for comfort and privacy. I provide a selection of flowing gowns, fine fabrics and tasteful accessories so you can try several looks without stress. Professional hair and make-up is available to complement the session and help you feel confident in front of the camera. What sets my work apart is a patient, empathetic approach combined with technical precision. Whether it’s intimate portraits, partner shots or early family images, authenticity is my priority. My maternity work has been recognised with the Outstanding Maternity Award and I am a member of the Bund Professioneller Portraitfotografen — a commitment to high standards in portrait and maternity photography. The process is straightforward and personal: we prepare together, enjoy a relaxed studio session and then I carefully retouch the selected images to preserve their timeless quality. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, professional maternity photographer in Niendorf who creates images you’ll cherish forever, I would love to hear from you. Let’s capture these unforgettable moments together.
