Portraits of life

As a wedding photographer based in Dillingen an der Donau, my greatest joy is capturing your day exactly as it unfolds: honest, emotional and without rigid posing. I’m Elena from Portraits of life and I accompany couples in Dillingen, Donau‑Ries, Günzburg and nearby regions with a calm, unobtrusive approach that lets you enjoy every moment. My wedding reportages are created from within the celebration — I blend into the crowd, record spontaneous reactions and offer gentle guidance for natural couple portraits when you want a little support. Why couples choose me: I work with heart and an eye for the small, meaningful details that later become precious memories. My style is authentic and timeless — warm, emotive images that reflect your relationship and the atmosphere of the day. In our pre‑wedding conversation (in person, by phone or video) we clarify timeline, favourite locations and your wishes — building trust so you can relax on the wedding day. How I work: On the day I move between the background and the heart of the event. I take the time for getting‑ready moments, quiet glances, family photos and the couple shoot. After the wedding you receive your carefully edited images digitally in a password‑protected gallery — transparent and without hidden limits, so you have your full story preserved. Being local to Dillingen, I know many beautiful spots for couple photos — from charming town backdrops to natural locations nearby. If you wish, I can also coordinate photo & film: my husband produces wedding films that stylistically match the photos, giving you a cohesive memory package. Although I also photograph newborn, maternity and family sessions, my main focus and expertise is wedding photography — with empathy, experience and the desire to create images that will move you for years to come. Get in touch for an informal introduction — I’d love to capture your love story.
