Wedding Photography Weinheim
Wedding photography in
Weinheim.
Weinheim’s old town, the Schlosspark and the Bergstraße offer different settings for your couple portraits. The right choice depends not only on the backdrop, but also on the light and your wedding-day schedule.
I photograph your wedding with a documentary, cinematic eye and Fujifilm medium format. While you celebrate with your guests, I capture encounters and small gestures. For your couple portraits, I offer calm guidance — without turning your wedding day into a photo session.

Best season
Weinheim is beautiful all year round. But especially in May/June (rose season) and in October (the Exotic Garden in autumn colors) it is particularly spectacular.
