Steffen Henkel Fotografie

I’m Steffen Henkel, a wedding photographer based in Bad Kreuznach, dedicated to telling wedding day stories through authentic, documentary‑led imagery. For me, wedding photography goes beyond posed pictures — it’s about capturing emotions, fleeting glances and the small moments that shape a day. Over the years I’ve developed a calm, observant approach that blends reportage with considered couple sessions when the moment calls for it. My style is unobtrusive, empathetic and close to the action. Rather than forcing poses, I look for honest interactions and real expressions. That means I often photograph from the edge of the moment, stepping in only when I can add something meaningful to the frame. The result are wedding reportages that preserve atmosphere and emotion — portraits you’ll feel when you look back. I use Leica equipment as a practical tool to get close and work quietly in delicate situations. Good gear helps me deliver consistently excellent results, but it’s the combination of technical skill and sensitivity that makes the images work. How do I work with couples? We start with a conversation about your plans and wishes. Many couples choose an engagement shoot or a relaxed pre‑wedding couple session — a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera and to build trust. On the wedding day I’m present but discreet: documenting, anticipating, and gently shaping moments when needed. Why choose me? I treat weddings as stories and commit fully to every assignment — friendly, straightforward and professional. If you want honest wedding photography, reliable support and pictures that truly reflect your day, let’s talk. I’m happy to discuss packages and wedding photography pricing clearly and personally upon request.
