Destination Wedding Photographer Europe
Iconic Wedding Stories – where elegance meets emotion
Exclusive Wedding Photography for Couples Who Value Aesthetics and Genuine Emotion
You’re marrying your best friend and looking for an experienced wedding photographer who captures your day with calm, honesty, and a refined sense of aesthetics — whether you’re celebrating an intimate wedding or a destination wedding somewhere in Europe.
My approach to photography combines a refined sense for light, atmosphere, and aesthetics — capturing the emotional moments of your wedding in a timeless wedding reportage. Whether it’s an intimate ceremony or a large celebration, at a castle, a vineyard, or a modern venue: I focus on what truly defines your day.
Some couples choose a destination wedding with guests, others decide to celebrate their love in a more intimate way – through an elopement.
Based in Kaiserslautern, Germany, I photograph weddings across the Palatinate, throughout the country, and selected destination weddings across Europe — from Paris and London to Tuscany. Whether at familiar venues or extraordinary locations, I preserve your story in a modern, elegant visual language.

Koch
Destination Wedding Photographer
Based in Kaiserslautern, Germany, I photograph destination weddings across Europe.
Since 2015, I’ve been accompanying couples on one of the most important days of their lives.
Across nearly 200 weddings, I’ve seen time and again that it’s the unplanned moments that later become the most meaningful memories — whether during the getting ready, the first look, or the celebration itself.
These are moments like this: the look on the groom’s face when he sees his bride for the first time, and everything else fades into the background. A deeply moved grandmother whose tears of joy say more than words ever could.
I photograph your day as it truly unfolds – candid, unobtrusive, and with an eye for the moments that tell your story. It’s about the details and emotions that define you as a couple, and about images that still carry meaning years from now.
If you’re looking for a refined, aesthetic wedding reportage that goes beyond classic wedding photos, you’re in the right place.
Why couples choose me
Many couples choose to work with me because they value experience, calmness, and reliability on one of the most important days of their lives.
A presence that provides confidence and leaves space for genuine moments.
Kind words from real weddings
Present, but never intrusive
You hardly noticed him – and yet he was everywhere.
Comfort that builds trust
We were nervous at first, but Martin’s calm presence relaxed us completely and made everything feel effortless.
Clarity that creates confidence
Right from the planning stage, we felt we were in the best hands – his clear communication gave us an incredible sense of security.
An Eye for the Unseen
He captured moments we didn’t even notice ourselves in all the excitement.
Because every story deserves my full attention, I take on only a limited number of couples each year.

Even as complete beginners, we felt totally at ease – Martin’s authentic, warm, and humorous nature took away any doubts and made us feel comfortable the entire time.
The photos exceeded all our expectations.”
