Garmisch-Partenkirchen Family, Couple & Elopement Photographer

Making Mountain Memories Last Forever

Hi, I’m Franzis -your photographer in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, right in the middle of the Alps, where the views are dramatic and the memories deserve to be just as good. Whether you’re celebrating love, wrangling the family for a session, or simply want to freeze a moment in time, I’m here for it, and I’m genuinely excited about it.

For me, photography isn’t just about posed shots (although we’ll definitely get those). It’s about the whole experience: keeping things easy, natural, and actually enjoyable. Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the chance to photograph more than 500 sessions - couples, proposals, growing families, tiny newborns, adventurous elopements - and I still love every second of it.

I’m all about helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera (yes, even if you think you’re awkward), guiding you without making anything feel forced, and capturing the real moments - the laughs, the chaos, the quiet in-between bits. Kids can be wild, couples can be shy, and that’s perfect. That’s where the magic is.

If you’re looking for someone who keeps things professional but never stiff, who enjoys a good laugh, loves being outdoors, and makes the whole process feel effortless - then we’ll get along just fine.

Let’s create something you’ll want to look back on again and again.



THE WOMAN BEHIND THE LENS

Hey, I’m Franzis!

Born and raised in Germany, I grew up in Heidelberg and now call the Alps home. Currently, I live in the greater Garmisch-Partenkirchen area (Oberammergau, home of the world’s best Alpine coaster). I have two amazing kids - one is 16, and the other is 9 and still believes I’m the best thing ever. To add to the chaos, we also have a nine year older Border Collie mix.

As a mother and a passionate adventurer, I’m all about creating memories in the great outdoors. You’ll find me hiking the trails, XC skiing, snowboarding, or paddle boarding on a lake. I’ve owned my business for eight years now and I love every aspect of it. I still take out my phone to take pictures as if I just moved here yesterday and point out every cow I see, and I don’t think I’ll ever stop.

“Not only do we adore the result, we had an amazing experience with you.

We are very nearly speechless. Thank you a million times over. You were our hype woman and coach and we are so grateful!'“
