Michelle

My name is Michelle, and I love exploring the world. I'd love to travel to every country and try a variety of cuisines. I especially enjoy browsing supermarkets abroad and discovering new products.

 

At home, I enthusiastically decorate the entire apartment during the Christmas season. I also have a passion for animals: I adore cats, but I also love dogs.

The volume setting must always be straight.

Whenever Marcel makes something to eat, I always have to try it at least once.

I don't drink coffee, but I can't pass by a well-known coffee house.

Anyone who sees me playing GTA would want to take away my driver's license.

Toilet paper rolls must not be hung upside down.

Fun Facts

this is us

Hey, we are Michelle and Marcel – a well-rehearsed couple who photograph weddings together with a lot of passion, joy and experience.

 

We met in 2008 at a nightclub on Women's Carnival—the beginning of a great love story. Since then, we've been through thick and thin, married since 2015, and share not only our lives but also our passion for photography.

 

Michelle has been taking photographs for as long as she can remember – with an eye for emotion, detail, and aesthetics. Marcel was initially just there, but quickly caught on with the enthusiasm. Our first photo tours took us to lakes, through landscapes, and to special places at night – including long exposures and lots of learning through trial and error. One trip to Königssee, with a camera, tripod, and a huge dose of adventure in tow, remains particularly memorable for us.

Two Hearts
One Team

Our journey in wedding photography

The first wedding we photographed was Marcel's cousin's – completely pressure-free, just for fun. It was a complete success, and the feedback was overwhelming. "Just register a small business!" she said. And so our journey officially began in October 2018.

 

The following year, we photographed around 10 weddings – in the Eifel region, in Bavaria, and even in Hamburg. Then the coronavirus pandemic came along and put a stop to everything. But we didn't give up; we continued our education, attended workshops, and worked on ourselves. In 2023, weddings were finally allowed to take place again, and we were full of anticipation at the wedding fair in Cologne. The spark caught – in 2024, we accompanied 35 wonderful couples on their big day. And it continues: In 2025, we will be represented at trade fairs again and are looking forward to over 30 weddings.

 

What makes us special as a team? We know each other inside and out. We understand each other without words – often, just a glance is enough. Our strengths complement each other perfectly: Michelle is the planner with an eye for detail, Marcel the doer with technical flair and a calm presence. Opposites that not only attract, but also complement each other brilliantly.

We love working together – even if it's sometimes challenging. But that's exactly what makes it so special. Because we're not just colleagues, but above all a team in life – with trust, respect, and a touch of humor.

 

In wedding photography, we like to be more than "just" a service provider. It's important to us that the chemistry is right. We take our time, listen, offer advice and support, and create a relaxed atmosphere where real emotions can develop. Our couples often say, "It feels like you're our friends" – and that's the best compliment we can receive.

 

When we're not attending weddings, we love traveling, discovering new cultures, trying good food, and getting to know new cuisines – from street food to fine dining. But we also greatly appreciate the peace and quiet of home. Whether relaxing on the couch with popcorn and a good TV show or playing games on the console – sometimes that's the best way to end the day.

MARCEL

I'm Marcel, and I love traveling and discovering new places. I also love going to the movies—preferably with a large portion of nachos and cheese dip.

 

I particularly enjoy the cold season, and in my free time, I like to immerse myself in other worlds through gaming. Dogs mean everything to me, especially French bulldogs, but I also have a soft spot for cats.

With pizza, I always eat the crust first.

Marmeladen, Säfte und Joghurts müssen immer ohne Stücke sein

Selbst im Winter ziehe ich noch ein T-Shirt und kurze Hose an

I like being in the water, but I can't swim

To me, coriander tastes like dishwashing liquid
