Loving newborn photography in Munich and the surrounding area
As a mobile newborn photographer in Munich, I capture your baby’s precious first moments in loving newborn photos. It is always a special experience for me to visit a family with their newborn and capture their happiness in lovingly designed newborn pictures.
Convenient home story or studio
I prefer to come to your home for the newborn shoot. You save yourself the stress of traveling and your baby feels the familiar surroundings and peace and quiet. This creates authentic newborn photos. At your request, we can also do the shoot in a daylight studio.
Flexible scheduling after birth
Babies don’t stick to appointments! That’s why I will reserve a provisional appointment for you after the planned date of birth. As soon as your little miracle has arrived and you are feeling well, we will arrange the final appointment. This way you can relax and enjoy the first few days with your baby.
Clothing and accessories included
To complement your favorite pieces, I bring stylish clothing and subtle accessories for your newborn shoot, from delicate wraps and soft blankets to outfits. All outfits and accessories are kept in soft, timeless colors to always keep your baby in the focus of the pictures.
Feel-good atmosphere in the shoot
I attach great importance to a pleasant atmosphere during the shoot. With a lot of patience and empathy, I make sure that the whole family feels comfortable and that wonderful newborn pictures are created. I take the time we need. Breastfeeding breaks, cuddling moments and little time-outs are of course part of this.
Authentic and discreet image style
Instead of artificial poses and props, I focus on the pure beauty of your baby. My photographic style is natural and authentic, so that the newborn photos will touch you for life. Soft daylight, subtle colors and genuine emotions make for timeless memories.
Lovingly edited newborn photos
After the shoot, I select the most beautiful newborn photos and edit them with great attention to detail. I harmonize the colors and retouch small skin imperfections. You then select your personal favorites in the online gallery. I will be happy to advise you on your choice.
As a mother of three, I know from my own experience that the postnatal period is unpredictable and emotionally moving. I adapt flexibly to your needs and have the necessary patience. As an experienced newborn photographer, I am empathetic and create a relaxed atmosphere in which everyone feels comfortable.
My love for newborn photography
The first days of a baby’s life and the happiness of a young family touch my heart every time anew. I love capturing a newborn in tender newborn poses and together with the family in lovingly designed newborn photos. I look forward to admiring your baby’s first moments with you and capturing the pure love and happiness of the family in authentic photos.
Professionally trained and experienced
I am specially trained in newborn photography and keep my knowledge up to date through regular further training. Through years of experience and hundreds of newborn shoots, I am experienced and have learned many techniques in newborn photography. My goal is to create natural and timeless newborn photos for you as lifelong memories.
We booked a newborn shoot with Anja and are more than happy with our choice. Anja really is an extremely empathetic and loving person – the preliminary communication alone was always incredibly warm […].
We felt very comfortable at all times and the photos turned out really great! You can tell that someone here has put their heart and soul into it – and what is of course also very important – they are really good with babies. […]

Feel free to get in touch with me during your pregnancy. I will reserve a provisional appointment for you around your due date and we will make a final appointment as soon as your little miracle has arrived!
The birth of a child is an unforgettable and wonderful event. Especially in the first few days and weeks, newborns grow and develop at a breathtaking pace. That is why it is so important to capture the love and special impressions of these first very emotional days in pictures.
My photographic style
Natural newborn shoot Munich with soft colors and subtle accessories
As a specialized newborn photographer in Munich, it is my passion to capture your precious first moments in their purest form. Together we will make your wishes come true and create your unique newborn shoot in Munich. In familiar surroundings, I will capture your baby’s first magical moments with you in emotional and authentic images.
Timeless beauty through soft colors: I like natural newborn pictures in soft, delicate shades. A harmonious color palette, for example of soft cream tones, gentle beige and soft pink, lets your baby shine and take center stage. This creates timeless newborn photos that will still touch you years later.
Discreet accessories with style: I avoid highly distracting and exaggerated accessories. A few stylishly selected accessories will emphasize your baby’s beauty without overshadowing it. Cosy wraps, hand-knitted hats and soft blankets in soft shades are lovely details that perfectly complement your newborn photos in Munich and allow your baby to take center stage.
Authentic moments instead of artificial poses: In my newborn photography, I deliberately avoid highly posed and kitschy poses. I take care not to place your baby in unnatural positions and put safety first. Instead, I capture the real, unforced moments. The sleepy yawns, the tiny fingers on your hand and the first curious looks: these authentic family moments are the ones that will touch your heart forever.
Natural light instead of bright flashes: Another element of my photographic style is the predominant use of natural light. I don’t use flash and instead work with the soft daylight in your home. It flatters the delicate baby skin and gives the pictures a natural look in the warm, cozy atmosphere that makes your newborn shoot at home so special.
Dreamy newborn photos in the first two weeks
When is the best time for your newborn shoot?
The typical dreamy photos of newborns are usually taken within the first two weeks of life. During this time, they are usually still very sleepy and can be put into typical newborn poses straight away, which is often what makes newborn photos so special. I therefore generally recommend planning your newborn shoot between the 4th and 14th day after birth.
Maybe you haven’t thought about a newborn photo shoot yet, or things have turned out a little differently than planned after the birth? No problem, you may be able to make up for the newborn shoot later, or you may decide to have a baby photo shoot at a later date. Choose the time that feels right for you and get in touch with me as soon as you have made your decision.
Book an appointment during pregnancy
When should you book your newborn photo shoot?
Ideally, you should plan and book your newborn shoot during your pregnancy. Once your baby has arrived, you won’t have much time to look for a newborn photographer.
Feel free to contact me at any time from the 12th week of pregnancy to book an appointment for your newborn photo shoot in Munich. I will keep my calendar free and we will find a suitable date for you after the birth.
Have you spontaneously decided to have your first days captured in magical newborn photos? Then just get in touch as soon as possible. I’ll be happy to see if I can fit you in!
Where does the newborn shoot take place in Munich?
You have the choice between various atmospheric locations where you can have your first precious family moments captured. I will adapt to your ideas and create a relaxed atmosphere in every setting to create authentic newborn photos.
Newborn shoot as a home story: Most customers opt for a newborn shoot at home. Your baby is most relaxed in their own four walls, knows the smells and sounds and feels very comfortable. You save yourself the stress of traveling, have everything to hand and can take relaxing breaks between shots. A newborn shoot as a home story produces the most authentic pictures. We use the natural light in your home and create intimate moments in your familiar surroundings.
Outdoor newborn photography: On request and if the weather permits, we are also happy to go outside: in front of the door, in your garden or in the nearest park. In pleasant temperatures, outdoor shots complement the home story pictures perfectly and give you a nice variety in the picture selection.
Newborn photography in the studio: At your request, I can also offer you newborn photography in a daylight studio. Please contact me if you are interested in a newborn shoot in the studio.
My recommendation: I can say from experience that the most beautiful and relaxed newborn photos are taken at home. Your baby is calmest there, you are relaxed and I can capture the special moments in peace and quiet without anyone having to pretend. I am happy to come to you, whether you live in Maxvorstadt, Schwabing, Haidhausen, Bogenhausen, any other part of Munich or in the surrounding area and bring everything we need for wonderful newborn photos.
Insights into newborn photography
Newborn photography process: How does a newborn photo shoot typically work?
The first few days with your baby are emotional and pass very quickly. In our lovingly designed newborn shoot, I capture these precious moments for you, from the tiny fingers to your first family hugs together. Here you can find out how a newborn shoot typically works and what you can expect.
Individual advice
The beginning: getting to know each other and planning your dream shoot
We will get to know each other in a non-binding phone call. I will be happy to listen to you and find out about your wishes and ideas for your newborn shoot.
Together we will develop ideas for your newborn shoot and discuss locations, outfits and image style. As a professional newborn photographer, I know the most beautiful poses and touching moments that we shouldn’t miss.
Together we will decide which special moments we would like to capture. I will be happy to listen to you, give you individual advice and work with you to turn your ideas into magical newborn pictures.
Tiny toes and other enchanting details
In the newborn shoot: getting started with delicate details that touch your heart
In the newborn shoot, I create images that reflect the unique details of your newborn, delicate portraits of the newborn that reflect the first character traits and emotional images with the family that show the emotional bond and joy of the new addition to the family. I adapt the order of the motifs flexibly during the shoot, depending on whether the newborn is asleep or awake, whether we are taking a break or what the mood of the siblings is at the time.
When your baby is slumbering peacefully at the beginning of the newborn shoot, I like to start with detailed shots. I lovingly capture the tiny feet and toes, the little hands, the gently curved ears and other adorable details. I lovingly complement the shots with selected accessories, such as a hand-knitted hat, a soft wrap or a small blanket. These intimate detail shots are taken in peace and quiet while your baby is blissfully dreaming.
Later you will marvel at how tiny these little feet once were and remember how precious every moment was in the early days.
The most beautiful moments and poses
Your sleeping angel at the center of the portraits
After the delicate details, your little miracle takes center stage. I focus on portraits of the newborn, complemented by a few stylish accessories such as baskets, blankets and favorite items of clothing. I photograph your baby in soft, natural poses – never exaggerated and artificial, but in such a way that they always feel comfortable and safe.
Sometimes your baby sleeps soundly like an angel or dozes peacefully in a soft basket surrounded by beautiful cloths. Perhaps it is also showing its curious, alert eyes, as if it already wants to discover the world. Every facial expression is unique and precious: the sleepy yawn, the contented smile during sleep or the first waking moments.
During our newborn photo shoot in Munich, I photograph different subjects and picture situations. My clients are usually grateful for suggestions and experience, but are also happy to contribute their own ideas and wishes, be it a special location, an emotionally significant outfit or a special pose for the newborn. I am happy to respond to your wishes and capture the most beautiful moments and poses for you. The safety and well-being of your baby are always my top priority.
For our shoot, I take suitable accessories and props with me based on our preliminary discussion, which are mainly kept in subtle colors or pastel shades and thus always keep the newborn in the focus of the pictures. My photographic approach generally remains natural, authentic and restrained.
Touching moments with the family
Loving photos with the mother, father and siblings
The most beautiful moments happen when the whole family is together. When mom holds her baby in her arms and they are both lost in a deep bond. When dad looks proudly at his little miracle and puts his big hand protectively over the tiny head.
The moments with the older siblings are also particularly touching. With great sensitivity, I capture the first curious glances, the cautious stroking and the joy of the new addition to the family. It is particularly important to me that the siblings feel comfortable in the photo shoot and are the center of attention for once.
These family photos show your love in its purest form, unposed and authentic. You interact naturally, laugh, cuddle and enjoy these first moments together. The result is loving photos that reflect your deep bond and happiness with your new family member.
In our newborn photo shoot in Munich, we take enough time to create adorable newborn photos and warm family photos. Every shoot – even if we have to change the plan during the shoot – results in unique, emotional and authentic photos. So please don’t worry if something goes differently than planned or expected and we have to improvise!
The most beautiful newborn pictures lovingly reworked for you
Your dream pictures are created: From the selection to the handover
After the newborn shoot, I sort through the photos and select the most beautiful and emotional newborn photos for you. I then edit each photo professionally and lovingly. I harmonize the colors and exposure, retouch skin blemishes and redness of your baby and make sure that the pictures match my personal image look.
I make the selection of the best pictures available to you in an online gallery. I combine detail pictures, portraits and family pictures in a balanced way. I also mix pictures in which you look directly into the camera with spontaneous, natural and seemingly unobserved situations. In these shots, you interact with each other, laugh, cuddle or play. This creates family photos that express the deep bond and joy of the new family member.
You take your time to look at the pictures in the online gallery and select your personal favorites. Then decide on a picture package. If you have difficulty deciding, choose the whole gallery as a picture package. I will then make the images available for you to download in high quality from the online gallery. On request, I can also recommend photo products that you can use to present your memories at home. This way, your newborn photos will become lasting memories that you can enjoy every day.
Newborn photography Munich
Trusting and friendly atmosphere in the newborn shoot
The first few days with your baby are filled with endless emotions: pride and overwhelming love, but perhaps also uncertainty and exhaustion. As a mother of three, I know exactly how you feel. When I visit you, I not only bring my equipment with me, but above all a lot of understanding, patience and an open heart for you.
During my newborn shootings in Munich, I make sure to create a warm, trusting and relaxed atmosphere. With a lot of calm and patience for newborns, siblings and parents, as a newborn photographer I create candid newborn photos, lively sibling photos and great family photos for you.
Your baby senses your relaxation: The more relaxed you are as parents, the calmer and happier your baby will be. If you are nervous or worried, your little treasure will sense this immediately. That’s why I consciously take the time to get to know you at the beginning before the photo session. We talk about your wishes and concerns and I calmly explain to you what we have in mind. It is very important to me that you feel comfortable from the very first moment.
I don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera: I hear this sentence a lot, especially from new moms. It’s completely understandable. Your body has just performed a miracle, you’re tired and perhaps don’t quite feel like yourself again yet. But your baby doesn’t see any dark circles or tousled hair in you. It sees pure love, warmth and security. I photograph these genuine feelings instead of perfect poses. The way you look at your baby, the way your hands close around their tiny fingers, the way daddy smiles proudly are the moments that count.
When not everything goes according to plan: Babies have a mind of their own: sometimes your little darling is restless, doesn’t want to sleep or is simply having a difficult day. Even older siblings can suddenly be shy or not feel like it. This is completely normal and not a problem at all! As an experienced newborn photographer and mother, I have experienced a lot and find a solution for every situation. We take breastfeeding breaks, have a cuddle or come up with a game for the older child while your baby gets some rest. It is often in these unplanned moments that the most beautiful pictures are taken.
Trust is everything: My aim is for our newborn shoot not to feel like a formal photo session, but like a relaxed visit with someone you trust. I want you to behave as naturally and carefree as if you were among yourselves. Because that’s exactly what creates these authentic, touching photos that will melt your heart for years to come. Don’t worry about the right pose or the perfect expression, let me do the photographing and gently guide you. I will observe the natural interactions between you and capture the most beautiful moments.
Time for what’s important: I like to take as much time for newborn photography as we need to take wonderful newborn photos and don’t look at the clock in between. If your baby needs a cuddle or breastfeeding break or the siblings need to warm up first, we are happy to take this into consideration. After the newborn shoot, you will not only have magical pictures, but also the feeling of having spent a relaxed family time.

All the information you need for your newborn shoot
Your most important questions about the newborn shoot
Why should we book a professional newborn shoot with an experienced newborn photographer?
The birth of your baby is a unique and unforgettable experience for you. These special moments of joy and happiness are worth capturing photographically as lifelong memories. You should choose a professional and specialized newborn photographer for your newborn shoot, as this will provide you with the right poses, outfits and accessories for magical newborn pictures.
When should we book our newborn shoot?

If you are spontaneously interested in a shoot, just get in touch right away. I’ll then see if I can fit you in!
When is the best time for a newborn shoot?
The ideal time window for a newborn shoot is between the 4th and 14th day after birth. During this time, newborns are still very sleepy and can easily be placed in typical newborn poses. You can find more information in the blog post on the best time for a newborn shoot.
What do we do if we have missed the time slot for a newborn shoot?
Even after the first 14 days, beautiful baby photos are created, then with alert, curious looks rather than sleeping poses. Let’s talk without obligation about whether we should make up for the newborn shoot or do a baby photo shoot at a later date. In this blog post you will find all the information about the developmental stages of your baby in the first year.
How does the appointment booking work if I don’t know when the birth will be and how I will feel afterwards?
Based on the calculated date of birth (ET), I will enter a provisional date in my calendar as a placeholder. After the birth, you will let me know promptly (within 1-2 days) via WhatsApp and we will arrange the final date for your newborn shoot. I only accept a limited number of newborn shoots per week so that I can offer you a shoot date.
What do we do with our shooting date if something comes up?
Most newborn shootings take place as a home story, so we are not dependent on the weather. If someone is ill or otherwise unavailable, please let me know in good time. Then we will find a good solution or a new date.
How much does a newborn photo shoot cost with you?
The price for the newborn photo shoot is made up of the price for the photo session and the price for the chosen photo package. For shoots on weekends, public holidays, in the studio or outside of Munich, I charge extra. The packages and prices are detailed on this page.
How long does a newborn shoot take with you?
A newborn shoot usually takes between two and three hours, depending on the number of subjects and interruptions. If necessary, we take short breaks for changing diapers, breastfeeding or cuddling. I take as much time as we need to photograph a beautiful selection of subjects. It’s best to plan enough free time after the shoot in case we need a little longer due to breaks.
What styles can you offer us in newborn photography?
You can see my photographic style in the pictures. I like to photograph naturally and authentically, in coordinated colors and with subtle accessories. Before the shoot, we’ll have a preliminary talk to find out whether you prefer a purist or more playful style. I will be happy to respond to your wishes and we will focus more on natural newborn photos, romantic newborn photos or discreet newborn photos with a boho look.
Which location can you recommend for our newborn photo shoot?
With me you have the choice of different locations, a comfortable newborn shoot at your home, an outdoor newborn shoot or newborn photography in the studio. I recommend the newborn shoot as a home story, as it is most comfortable for you in the first few days after the birth and the most beautiful and relaxed newborn pictures are created at home.
Can you provide us with outfits and accessories for our baby?
Yes, by telephone arrangement I will bring a selection of harmonious outfits for the baby and beautiful accessories such as blankets, scarves and baskets. However, I recommend that you also come up with your own ideas and have particularly beautiful outfits, personal accessories and toys ready.
Can we also include our own outfits for our newborn?
Of course, it is also my clear recommendation that you prepare your favorite pieces of clothing, special accessories or favorite toys. In this blog post you will find tips for your newborn shoot outfit.
Which outfits are best to choose as a family for our newborn shoot?
I recommend that you agree on two or three colors and combine your clothes in shades of these colors. It looks harmonious and well coordinated if the colors or color nuances are partially reflected in the clothing of the other family members.
On the other hand, you should avoid lettering, pictures or other motifs on clothing, as they distract the viewer and make the pictures look less timeless.
I have a lot of experience in newborn photography and know many suitable poses and motifs that might suit you well. However, it is wonderful if you bring in your own wishes and ideas. Together we will find the most beautiful poses and motifs for you.
Should we include us parents and the siblings in the newborn shoot?
I always recommend including the parents and siblings in the newborn shoot. All parents, children, siblings, grandparents and pets are welcome. I am happy to take family photos with everyone and will adapt to your wishes.
How can we as parents prepare for the newborn photo shoot?
With a little preparation, your newborn shoot will run smoothly and you and your baby will not be unnecessarily stressed.
You are welcome to put together your favorite outfits. If you like, incorporate a special cuddly toy, blanket or similar accessory into the shoot. If your baby takes a pacifier, make sure you have it to hand.
It is very helpful if your baby is full and content at the start of the shoot. It’s best to keep them awake a little before the shoot so that they are tired and fall asleep during the shoot. But don’t stress yourselves, with a lot of patience most babies manage after a while.
How do we deal with the fact that our home is not suitable for newborn photography?
We don’t need much for a great newborn shoot, as your baby’s radius is still very limited. We can take photos in any room, be it the living room, bedroom, nursery or any other room. As a newborn photographer, I have already taken beautiful newborn photos in a wide variety of homes. Send me a few pictures of your home via WhatsApp and I’ll be happy to advise you!
What if I don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera?
I hear this phrase especially from new moms, and I can understand your feelings. From your baby’s point of view, what counts is warmth, security and pure love. It is these feelings that we capture in the best possible way in beautiful pictures during this highly emotional time. We choose the poses so that you feel comfortable and mix pictures of the newborn alone, pictures as a couple and with the whole family.
What if our baby has a bad day in the newborn shoot, doesn’t sleep or is restless?
Please don’t worry that we won’t take nice pictures during the photo shoot. If you relax as parents, this will also have a very positive effect on your baby and the siblings. I am very patient and experienced in newborn photography, so I have been able to take wonderful newborn photos in every shoot.
Is the safety of our baby guaranteed in the newborn shoot?
The safety of your baby during the newborn shoot is my top priority. I am specially trained in newborn photography and regularly undergo further training. As a mother of three, I have learned how to handle babies over a long period of time. I avoid unnatural and dangerous poses and treat your baby gently and carefully.
Does newborn photography stress our baby?
A professional newborn photo shoot is a relaxing experience for your baby. The warm, cuddly atmosphere and gentle swaddling will remind them of their mother’s tummy and make them feel secure. I work with a lot of patience and follow your baby’s rhythm with enough time for breaks for breastfeeding and cuddling. Many babies sleep soundly during the shoot.
How do we deal with it if the siblings don’t want to take part in the shoot?
We take the time that the siblings need to gain confidence. I playfully distract them or involve them in the shoot in other ways. The most authentic and beautiful pictures are often taken in these informal moments. If a sibling does not want to be photographed at all, I recommend respecting this. We then concentrate on the newborn and the parents, and the older siblings look on in a relaxed manner. You can find some tips in the article Newborn shoot with siblings.
When do we get our newborn photos after the shoot?
You will receive your photos promptly, usually within a week after the newborn shoot in an online gallery for viewing. I will send you a message as soon as the gallery is ready. Then you can view the pictures at your leisure and choose your favorites,
How are our newborn pictures processed?
After the newborn shoot, I sort through the pictures and select the best ones for you. I then edit them professionally, in particular I adjust the exposure and color balance and reduce redness and flaking of the newborn’s skin. If you would also like a full beauty retouch of the adults or have special editing requests, please contact me.
How many photos do we get after the newborn shoot?
After the photo shoot, I will post at least 80 pictures in the online gallery. You choose your personal favorites from these pictures in the online gallery. The image packages contain different numbers of images. I also offer you the option of removing all the pictures from the gallery. You can find the image packages in the price information.
We would like to display our newborn photos here. Can you advise us on photo products?
It’s a great idea to display your pictures in your home! I will be happy to advise you on high-quality photo products such as fine art prints, mini leporellos, passe-partout boxes, albums, wall pictures and other products. Feel free to contact me so that your precious memories are shown to their best advantage.
