Twenty frames from the last twelve months — weddings in the Dolomites, editorial portraits for small magazines, two product campaigns, one quiet Tuesday afternoon. Tap any frame to enlarge.
Four core formats. Every project starts with a call and a walk-through of what you actually need — half the inquiries we get end up as something custom, and that's fine.
Full-day documentary coverage with one shooter. Quiet, not intrusive. I keep myself invisible and your people stay themselves.
Editorial, brand, or personal. Studio or location. I bring a small kit and a lot of patience — most people warm up around minute twenty.
Campaigns, catalog, editorial still life. We plan the shoot like a small film — mood, shot list, light — so nothing is improvised on the day.
I'm Maren. I started taking pictures at weddings as a favor in 2014 and never stopped. The studio lives in a converted printshop in Munich with very good north-facing windows and one extremely opinionated espresso machine.
My work leans quiet and warm — more documentary than directed, more honest than polished. If you're looking for perfect, I'm probably not your photographer. If you're looking for something you'll still feel in ten years, we should talk.
A selection of reviews collected from couples, brands, and editors. Full case studies and references available on request.
Maren felt like a friend with a camera, not a vendor. Six months later I still find new details in the gallery — moments I didn't even know happened on my own wedding day.
We've worked with a lot of photographers for the magazine. Few understand pacing like Maren — quiet on set, generous in edit, never precious about the work.
The campaign she delivered outperformed our previous launch by 3×. But honestly what I loved most was how calm the shoot day was. Everyone left happy, which is rare.
I hate being photographed. Maren made me forget the camera was there for exactly long enough to get the shot, then let me go. Genuinely magical.
Booked her for a product launch, ended up with two years of campaign imagery. Every frame has been used. That never happens.
Four steps, no surprises. I'll tell you what happens next at every stage, and if anything changes you'll hear it from me before you have to ask.
Tell me a little about the project — dates, location, mood. I reply within 24 hours with honest availability and a first estimate.
A 30-minute call, a shared mood document, a shot list if the project needs one. Contract signed, deposit settled, dates locked.
I show up early, stay quiet, and photograph what's actually happening. You focus on the day; I take care of the rest.
