Sixty-Fourth Collection
Let me say that the connection of this couple is unmatched, daring, funny, kind and happy to declare their love in this way to follow the dream of growing old together, a wedding day to remember with your family and friends, a pleasure to be together with them on such a special day.
It's amazing how you can play with the sun and your camera. In June 2020 we went with a couple to a beautiful place in the Netherlands. On a field with some trees we tried out smoking bombs as the light beams between the trees were so nice. While the wedding couple was rehearsing their wedding dance, we shot this image of them, with a purple haze on the back. We're so font of matching different things together. In this case: nature/love with art colors/smoke.
This lovely couple married at the beach. We did a short shoot after their wedding ceremony. We climbed these blocks to make this beautiful picture with these awesome clouds. It was a steep climb for both so I loved the brave nature of the couple, otherwise, I could not make this lovely shot.
Emilie and Jason had a very intimate wedding due to Covid-19, and decided to embrace the moment, and celebrate in style once the knot had been tied. They were really happy, and it shows in this capture :-)
Back when hugging was a thing, Holly embraced a friend after marrying the love of her life. I cannot wait until these moments can happen again. Twin Creeks Country Club, Sydney.
This beautiful couple loves to work out in this gym so they wanted to shoot in there. On a staircase and with help from mag mods I created this light. And we had fun!
Captured at the end of their engagement session, we headed to a nearby field and the weather was so hot. I used the wheat to add depth and foreground interest - a simple photo but looks really nice.
One of my favorite weddings in 2020. These two lovers said YES to each other during a difficult corona time. They dance outside in the sundown and joined the day.
At this after-wedding shooting I took a golden mesh from Christmas decoration with me. And in the late afternoon backlight, I tried it out. The mesh was very dense, so it gave a lot of bokeh spots. I love the effect.
At the end of this beautiful wedding day, I saw the hallway to the place where their car was parked and just had to take this image. I love their poses and how the image turned out.
Full speed in a Porsche in the harbor of Antwerp! These lovely girls work there so we had the place for ourselves. Bad weather was predicted but we had luck all day. In the container area, we had lots of spaces to make these nice pictures.
From sunrise to sunset, from day to night, we will forever walk hand-in-hand. This was a 5:00 am engagement shoot with an amazing couple!
The magnificent Ripley Castle in North Yorkshire forms the backdrop of this couple's portrait, one of my favorite venues. I wanted to create a warm, romantic glow in the entrance porch to light the couple, but maintain a bit of gloomy twilight on the imposing castle walls above them.
A photo of the bride's bouquet, quite simply when she walked with a beautiful sunset as an atmosphere! I tried to put movement in the traditional photo of the bouquet.
Rings - a symbol of eternity. There is probably no beautiful symbol in the love represented by the wedding rings. That's why I love the detailed photos of the rings at every wedding.
Sarah & Michael's venue was dressed perfectly for a winter-themed wedding, I took advantage of the warm candlelight & fairy lights to create this romantic moment. I added a little extra warmth to the image by using an ice light.
Venue - Old Hall Ely.
The idyllic location of the Sorrento coastline made for this composition of a picturesque couple shot. I just loved this wedding in the Italian sunshine and can’t wait to be back!
The wind was blowing so hard during the making of this photo. In a series of 3 photos, the bride lost her veil. Love this one the most During this photo, the bride had no idea that they had to sprint shortly after this kiss...
"Tu me fais tourner la tête, mon manège à moi, c'est toi" E. Piaf. Quand l'Amour emporte tout sur son chemin et que seules les émotions pures subsistent...
A lavender field in full bloom in Hokkaido, Japan. It was a great spot on a quiet lake. I had a dreamy time with the couple.
I was able to make this lovely picture in the Hatertse Vennen (Nijmegen) during a smoking hot day. The heather was blooming, but Loesan & Roel needed some shadow now and then to cool off a bit ;)
A fellow photographer from Norway was unable to record this wedding because of Corona and we had the honor to take over from here. Putting on the rings remains something special. The wedding ring symbolizes eternal connection. Which makes it worthwhile for us to capture the photo of the ring in a different way!
Capture My Big Day
A romantic elopement in Northern Ireland which was met by rain all day. For a few brief moments, the weather cleared and I and the couple were able to make our way to Dunluce Castle. At the cliff edge, the coastline was clear and crisp. As the couple embraced the cliffs in the background created a nice symmetry with the couple which created a powerful scene.
It was a little bit rainy in Amsterdam, but that didn't stop this beautiful couple from going into the city. I love this typical Dutch cloudy sky. In between the raindrops we took some stunning pictures.
What would be the maximum risk that one would attempt to freeze their memories with their loved ones? Here is one such couple, Kavin & Abi, who participated in whole heartedly, and that's always a delight for the photographers to capture such moments!!! Hanging out at the edges of Yercaud hills with the adventurous couple; this click always top lists the favorites in our photo bucket!!!
When it suddenly started pouring on us, we quickly ran to the stairwell of this garage. I decided to take the risk of getting my equipment a little wet for a potentially great photograph. So I put up a light behind the couple and got them to have fun in the rain, this was literally the last shot from the shoot and it’s my favorite moment of these two!
Zhanar and Trevor stood on an old trunk on the staircase to their suite at The Maryborough House hotel. I love all the original features of this Georgian house and the romantic staircase.
I love this image so much. What makes it so special to me is that this bridge with the chapel is 1 out of only 3 in the UK and it’s in my home tome of ST IVES, Cambridgeshire. The kind people of the town helped so much to make this image happen. I’m so grateful that the bride and groom were up for this shoot. Like for most of my shots, it feels so great when you know you got the image!
They never want to be in front of the camera but when they are there... Men among themselves :) what a great atmosphere. Let's get the party started.
"Release The Doves!"
This was such a fun photo with one chance to capture the moment. This photo was shot right after the wedding ceremony in Cork, Ireland. Everything about the day was so relaxed and fun with this amazing couple! I was so glad the couple loved the outcome of this picture, from their expressions to the dove looking down the barrel of the lens at me - such a great day!
