I’m Kati (Katrin Wendel) from ka_lotta_photography, working as a wedding photographer based in Schwerin. I discovered my passion for photography at the end of 2016 and since 2018 I’ve been accompanying couples with my camera to capture the genuine moments that make a wedding unique. My focus is on wedding reportage and intimate couple shoots that feel natural and unscripted. My approach is relaxed and attentive: I observe and record the little moments that tell the story of your day, without interrupting the flow. During the couple shoot I create a calm atmosphere where real emotions — closeness, laughter, quiet looks — can come through. I prefer subtle guidance over rigid posing so your photos reflect who you really are. The process is personal and straightforward: we talk through your wishes and the timeline beforehand so I know what matters most to you. On the wedding day I work documentary-style, stepping in only for thoughtfully composed portraits or when you want a specific image. My aim is that you feel comfortable and cared for in front of the camera. In addition to full wedding coverage, I also offer engagement sessions. These are a lovely way to get to know each other before the big day and to have relaxed photos for save-the-dates or invitations. Engagement shoots are a helpful complement, especially if you’d like practice in front of the lens. Why couples choose me: I bring an eye for detail, sensitivity to atmosphere, and a genuine desire to preserve the real emotions of your wedding day. As a local wedding photographer in Schwerin I’m familiar with beautiful locations nearby and happy to suggest ideas for your couple shoot. Clear, fair arrangements and a personal, warm approach are important to me — let’s talk so your wedding photos can be as individual as your celebration.
