Sarah Heckendorn Fotografie

Based in the Black Forest and working as a wedding photographer in Schopfheim, I — Sarah Heckendorn — specialize in natural, stylish wedding photography and heartfelt reportage. My focus is on authentic moments: I document your day with a calm, unobtrusive hand and create relaxed couple shoots where the best images arise when you feel comfortable and yourselves. My approach is loose and unforced. I believe the most memorable wedding photos come from real moments, not staged poses. I photograph unobtrusively, with a strong eye for detail and a lot of heart, so that years later you still feel the emotion and magic of your day when you look at your images. Many couples appreciate that I combine documentary coverage with gentle direction — capturing candid moments while offering quiet guidance during the couple session when needed. I recommend an engagement (Verlobung) shoot as a rehearsal: it’s a relaxed way to get used to me and the camera, which helps you feel more at ease on the wedding day and makes the portraits even more natural. After the wedding, I can design custom photo books to present your reportage and keep your memories tangible. Each book is individually designed to your wishes. I mainly photograph in southern Germany, close to Switzerland and France, and I travel regularly to Tirol and beyond. As a happily married photographer myself, I have a deep appreciation for weddings and aim to accompany you with empathy and professional dedication throughout the day. If you’re looking for a natural wedding reportage, a relaxed couple shoot, or an engagement session, I’d love to hear from you. Together we’ll find the style that tells your story authentically.
