hey there
I'm Nikolett Mayer
I'm a family photographer based in Basel, Switzerland, but I have a passion for exploring all corners of this beautiful country. Whether it's Basel, Zurich, Luzern, Bern, or anywhere in between, I'm more than happy to travel to you.
My goal is to create a relaxed and comfortable environment, so you can truly be yourself. I aim to capture you and your family in the most authentic way, just as you want to be seen and remembered.
For the most part, I offer my services in English and Hungarian (my mother tongue), but I also speak and understand High German. As for Swiss German, I'm constantly learning it from my 3.5-year-old daughter.

LET'S MAKE MEMORIES!
A family photoshoot isn't just about creating an Instagram post—it's about capturing memories that will be cherished by you and even your grandchildren, documenting a season of life, and building a visual legacy for your family.
Are we a good fit?
Choosing a family photographer is a personal decision—it’s not just about beautiful images, but about feeling comfortable and seen.
If you’re someone who loves authentic moments over posed perfection, we might just be a perfect match. My approach is relaxed and connection-focused, capturing those little in-between moments that truly reflect your family's story.
My clients often tell me they want more than just pretty pictures—they want to remember the feeling. The way their baby fit perfectly in their arms, the laughter during a tickle fight, or the quiet look between parents in the middle of the chaos.
If you're drawn to natural light, soft tones, and honest storytelling, you’ll feel right at home here. Whether we’re documenting your newborn at home or running around in the fields around Basel with your little ones, my goal is to make the experience easy and enjoyable. No pressure to pose or perform—just be yourselves, and I’ll do the rest. I keep my editing clean and timeless, so your photos always feel true to life and full of heart.
let's work together
CLIENT LOVE
"Niki puts so much effort in her work as a photographer. The great experience starts right after the booking, where she helps you in choosing the right outfit to find out who you are and what are you looking for. The shooting itself is so easy. We had all so much fun. Niki had so much patience, even though the weather was not exactly what we were hoping for. Nonetheless the results were breathtaking, loved every single photo so that we had to take the whole gallery. "

any my journes to Photography
My journey with photography began back in high school, but life led me down different paths for a while. It wasn't until we moved to Switzerland in 2019 that I rediscovered my passion for photography. The breathtaking landscapes here is so inspiring! Then, in 2021, when my daughter came into the world, my love for photography evolved even further. Capturing the beauty of family moments became my greatest joy.
