About Lab Laete
Our Philosophy
In a world shaped by artificial perfection, filters, and artificial intelligence, we choose something different: real laughter, real connection, real emotion, and real moments that cannot be generated — only felt. We believe authenticity will always be timeless.
Who We Are
We are two creatives based in Vienna, united by our love for honest storytelling and the quiet beauty of family life. Through our shared vision, we create images that feel natural, intimate, and emotionally true.
What We Do
We specialize in maternity, newborn, and family photography. Each session is guided with intention yet allowed to unfold naturally — so connection can take the lead.
Why It Matters
Childhood is not flawless. It is messy hands, tender embraces, loud giggles, and fleeting in‑between moments. These are the details that disappear the fastest and become the most precious. Our work preserves them with care and artistry so they remain alive long after the moment has passed.
Our Belief
The most meaningful images are not created by algorithms. They are created by presence, trust, and human connection.
What clients say
We’re not usually comfortable in front of the camera, but Minela and Katarina made the entire cake smash session feel natural and relaxed. It was such a fun experience, and the memories we received are truly priceless. We’ll definitely book again.
Marjana
Emotion cannot be faked, especially not with kids. So what you see in Lab Laete’s photos is real joy. Lab Laete created such a relaxed and positive atmosphere at the photoshoot. We had a great time and are very happy with the photos!
Almira
We had a beautiful Christmas photo session with our son and loved the whole experience. Minela made us feel relaxed and captured warm, natural moments as a family. The photos turned into our Christmas cards for family and friends, and everyone loved them.
