As a wedding photographer in Elmshorn I capture your wedding as an emotional reportage and refined couple sessions. Engagement shoots and personal guidance from planning to final gallery.
I'm Dirk Schönfeldt — a wedding photographer based in Elmshorn with more than 25 years of experience and a passion for photographing people. Specialising in wedding photography, I accompany couples across Elmshorn, greater Hamburg and the North and Baltic Sea coasts, combining unobtrusive reportage with carefully crafted couple portraits. Why choose me? My images are driven by real moments: tears, laughter and fleeting glances. I photograph with sensitivity and a trained eye. While accolades such as recognition from the "Masters of German Wedding Photography" reflect my standards, what matters most is the trust of the couples I work with. I offer personal, reliable service and strive to create photographs that remain moving years from now. My process: We start with a consultation — by phone, email or in my Elmshorn studio — to plan timing, favourite locations (parks, waterfronts or your venue) and the mood you'd like. On the wedding day I stay discreet and flexible: documenting preparations, the ceremony, congratulations and celebrations in a natural style, and setting aside calm moments for portraiture. After the shoot I carefully edit and retouch the images to deliver a cohesive, high‑quality gallery. Services related to weddings include wedding reportage, couple sessions, engagement/Save‑the‑Date shoots, discreet ceremony coverage, professional image retouching and optional premium photo albums. While I also photograph families and newborns, this offering focuses on wedding photography. Photography keeps me happy. If you want authentic, creative and emotionally powerful wedding photos, get in touch. I’ll personally support you from the first idea to the final gallery so your memories stay alive in pictures.
