Natural and lively portraits from kindergarden and school days

We spend a whole lot of time of our childhood in kindergarten and school. What do we take with us? Friends, knowledge, wisdom, ...
MY WISH IS ALSO THAT EVERY GIRL AND BOY GETS PICTURES FROM THIS TIME THAT BECOME
VALUABLE MEMORIESFOR PARENTS, GRANDPARENTS AND ESPECIALLY FOR THE CHILD.

AS A PRIMARY TEACHER, IT WERE ALWAYS THE ONE-TO-ONE-MOMENTS WITH MY PUPILS THAT MOVED MY HEART.
ALSO AS A PHOTOGRAPHER I WANT TO LISTEN AND BUILD UP TRUST
AND TAKE UNIQUE LIVING AND ARTFUL IMAGES.
1997: Actually very nice, the picture of me as first grader, good and proud, sitting in front of an open book with my filler in my right hand ... 5 years later I stand in line with my classmates to have my single portrait taken hoping that I will like it this year and that I get a quite natural smile. Pale blue background, "head up a bit, tilt a little to the left, and smile"... weeks later: "hm, ...let's take it to have a memory." By the way, what happens to my photos if I do not take them? 
How I would loved to have a nice picture of me, maybe outdoors, by a photographer who takes a bit more time, does not direct my head into a stiff pose and does not let the whole class watch. Why the annual photographer visit? The picture of my class is awesome to have, but the single portraits are only to make fun about (there are the girls, of course, who always look good). To get a passport picture, I can go to the photographer myself. A few natural portraits in a relaxed atmosphere ... Let's be the change we want to see in the world!

As a former pupil interested in photography back then and primary school teacher, photographer and mother, I am dealing four-fold with this topic. All my thoughts resulted in offering a modern concept with a natural photo experience for schools and kinder gardens. My goal is to create images that are alive, natural and real in a atmosphere of trust and joy that appear in the same artistic style as my wedding and family pictures. 
As a primary school teacher always the one-to-one-conversations with pupils touched my heart. I want to listen, build trust, radiating calm and bring a lot of patience to be very timidor very upset children.

Contact - Booking - Preparation

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me and gain insight into my work. If my concept made you curious, please feel free to contact me via the contact form and I will send you more information, we will discuss last questions and secure the date(s) for my visit at your kinder garden  or school. The best time is from May to September, as the probability for dry warm weather is quite high, so I can take pictures of the children outside without winter jackets. The safety of your children is important to me. Therefore, in preparation of the photography day, you'll receive a list on which the parents can sign their consent.

The photo day - fresh and happy

The time has come - for one or two days I visit the children in your facility. First, I photograph each child with his password card to assign the pictures later. This card also gives parents their personal password-protected access to their child's online gallery. Then I accompany the children as they play outside to create natural genuine images of them in an environment that is familiar to them and where they spend a lot of their time. I'm also a big fan of sibling pictures. I only photograph the kids outdoors with natural light. Therefore, my planning includes some flexibility to catch an "outdoor day".

Online gallery and image order

After the photo session, I will choose and edit a certain number of pictures for each child in a natural, timeless style. Only a few days later, the parents have the opportunity to see their child's pictures and the group photo in a password-protected online gallery, select their favorite pictures and to order them as high-res file for download or as high-quality prints. I compiled different packages.

I am glad that you have taken the time to gain insight into my work and what makes me a person. If my concept has convinced you, please feel free to contact me via the contact form and I will send you my information material, we will discuss last questions and make an appointment for my visit to your day care center or school. The best time is from May to September, as the probability for dry warm weather is quite high, so I can take pictures of the children outside without thick jackets. The safety of the children is important to me. Therefore, in preparation for the photography day, the day care center receives a list on which the parents can sign their consent.

The photo tag - fresh and happy

The time has come - on one or two days I visit the children in your facility. First, I photograph each child with his password card to assign the pictures later. This card gives parents their personal password-protected access to their child's online gallery. Then I accompany the children photographically during free play. This creates natural, informal images of your children in an environment that is familiar to them and where they spend a lot of their time. I'm also a big fan of sibling pictures. I only photograph the kids outdoors with natural light. Therefore, my planning includes some flexibility to catch an "outdoor day". If it can not be otherwise, it is also possible in consultation with the Kita-line to photograph in a suitable room.

After only a few days, the parents have the opportunity to see their child's pictures and the group photo in a password-protected online gallery, to select their favorite pictures in peace and to order them as a file for download or as high-quality technical prints. Here I have different packages for you on offer.
