So lovely that you are here.
MOIN & SERVUS, I'm Lena Dugnus.
36 years old and have been living in the heart of Munich with my husband for a few years now, but I'm a true northern light who grew up on the Baltic Sea: I am calm, attentive, creative and adventurous. My passion is good food and traveling. Of course, I also try to stay healthy and fit with regular Pilates and Crossfit, especially to be able to carry the heavy equipment at weddings at least somewhat relaxed. I love exploring the world. I love road trips, the vast ocean, gigantic mountains, those turquoise blue lakes and meeting all kinds of people. On every trip, I look out for beautiful shooting locations. What should never be missing: of course my camera…and yes okay, my husband too ;-)
NICE TO KNOW
I've never been good at expressing my feelings out loud. I take after my Nordic dad in that respect. But my Hessian mom also lives inside me. She's loud, open-hearted and always up for a laugh.
With photography, I have found a way to express myself and my creative character.
As a trained TV journalist, I worked in television (Prosieben) for over 11 years. This gave me a feeling for aesthetic images and how to emphasize a person's personality in front of the camera in an authentic and unique way. For a few years now, I've been able to turn my passion into a profession and have been a full-time photographer ever since.
MY WAY OF TAKING PICTURES
I photograph authentic & modern and don't force you into poses. I draw real emotions out of you. In this moment, I am not just your photographer. I am your friend, your entertainer, your stylist & your emotional support. You should be able to let yourself go with me. Because an authentic photo tells so much – it tells these very small, often undiscovered moments.
Whether it's a wedding or maternity shoot:
When I take photos, it's not just a picture that is created. Priceless memories are created that tell you and your very personal love story.
MY OWN LOVESTORY
My husband Marcel and I are a great team in every situation. He has supported, motivated and encouraged me in my photography from the very beginning.
At weddings, he can also be booked as a second shooter. Just ask me if he has time to be there on your date. He also films and photographs cool aerial shots of you and your location with our drone. We are also happy to take the group photo by drone if you would like us to. As you can see, we are a well-coordinated team in every respect.
MY EDITING STYLE
My editing style is modern, warm and natural. You can still see all the colors in my pictures. Only the very bright, glowing tones are pulled into a more natural tone so that they adapt homogeneously to the surroundings. In addition to the pictures themselves, you should also be able to identify with the photographer's style. If you like natural, warm colors, I'm your perfect match.
