  • „We booked Eugen for our summer wedding and are very happy with his work. Everything went really well from start to finish, which is why we can recommend Eugen to everyone. From getting ready to the removal of the veil, the special moments of our wedding were captured perfectly. The quality of the photos is very high and they definitely exceeded our expectations. We were especially surprised by how quickly we received the finished pictures. Thank you, Eugen, for the wonderful memories of our special day!“

  • „Really great photos! Eugen covered our wedding in June from getting ready until midnight. A likeable and good photographer. The pictures are amazing, and despite the not so nice weather the photos are excellent. The price is great too and the quality outstanding. Highly recommended!“

    „The pictures of our wedding reportage tell the whole story of our day and reflect the mood perfectly. What we (and all the guests) like most is that Eugen does not only focus on the couple but also captures all the guests individually and spontaneously.“

How your wedding day with me works

You decide when I start. I usually leave after the bouquet toss.

Bride and groom in an arcade
  1. First meeting and engagement shoot

    We talk through the schedule, the locations and your wishes, at your home if you like (within 25 km). The full-day package includes an engagement shoot beforehand at no extra charge.

  2. Getting ready and ceremony

    I start when you want me to, for example during hair and make-up. During the ceremony at the registry office, in church or at a non-denominational ceremony, I move quietly in the background.

  3. Group pictures and couple shoot

    Pictures with your guests are taken outdoors. If that is not possible, I set up my mobile studio with studio flash in the venue. The couple shoot works without stiff poses.

  4. Party until about 12:30 am

    I stay into the night and also photograph your guests, the venue and the details.

  5. Your pictures

    I edit every picture individually. You receive all pictures in two versions, natural and with a filter, in full resolution on a USB stick.

Portrait of Eugen Hartwig

Eugen Hartwig, photographer from Löhne

Weddings are my main work. My approach is documentary: during the ceremony I stay in the background and photograph what happens, grandma's tear just as much as the laughter of the witnesses.

My couple shoots work without stiff poses. If you have never stood in front of a camera, I give you as much direction as you need.

I shoot in RAW on full-frame cameras with changing lenses and edit on a calibrated monitor. Your image files are stored on several hard drives at the same time in case one fails.

Besides weddings I photograph families, couples, maternity, christenings and celebrations.

Working in the Herford district, East Westphalia-Lippe and neighbouring Lower Saxony

I am based in Löhne. I regularly photograph in the Herford district and in the region as far as Minden, Bielefeld, Gütersloh and Detmold. I know places such as Marta Herford, Schloss Ulenburg and Gut Hünnefeld.

You can also book me for weddings further away, anywhere in Germany.

Questions couples often ask

Your question is not listed? Send me a WhatsApp message or call.

All questions and answers
When should we book?

As soon as your date is fixed. The summer months are often booked far in advance. Now and then a date is free at short notice, so simply ask with your date.

What does full-day coverage cost?

The full-day reportage until about 12:30 am costs €1,490, with a photo album (30 cm × 30 cm, 34 pages) €1,840. Coverage of the ceremony only, with a couple shoot, costs €640.

How many pictures do we get?

Full-day coverage results in about 700 to 1,200 pictures, depending on the wedding. You receive all of them as JPEG files, in full resolution and without a logo or copy protection.

What happens if it rains on the wedding day?

Full-day coverage comes with a good-weather guarantee. We move the couple shoot to a dry place or repeat it on another day. There is no further charge for the shoot, only travel costs where they apply.

How long do you stay at the party?

You decide when I start. Coverage usually ends after the bouquet toss, at around 12:30 am.

May we share the pictures and order prints?

Yes. You may copy all pictures, upload them to social networks and order as many prints as you like. I do not charge anything further for that.

When is our date firmly booked?

With the order confirmation. From then on your date is fixed and will not be given to anyone else. For weddings a deposit is usually charged.

Ask for your date

Send me the date and place of your wedding and I will tell you whether the day is free. You get a reply within 24 hours, including weekends and public holidays.
