I call this: the Nothing hill pose. To me it means pure romance.

Bride getting ready! This bride in her dress was stunning, and when she sat down to put on her shoes, the ruffles of the dress were so pretty!

Pop the champagne, and let's toast to the newlyweds!

This couple are dear friends of mine. At their wedding I would be their guest and as we say in Dutch "ceremoniemeester". I therefore could not take the photo's on the big day. However, they wanted me to capture the wedding reportage, and therefore we went a couple days before the wedding to a beautiful location at sundown to capture their beautiful love. The hazy flare between them creates such a romantic atmosphere!

Love is simple, pure, romantic, and this picture has all those elements for me.

Girls just wanna have fun!! The bride and all her friends understood the assignment: a festive dresscode , don't they look amazing?

It's the moment you have been waiting for: you are man and wife, you may kiss!

Lovely couple + beautiful forest with beginning fall colours + smoke = succes ;)

All you need is...
A beautiful couple in love, sunlight, and nature as a backdrop.
Simplicity is all you need, it creates perfection every single time.

The bride actually came up with the idea for this photo! She created a mood board with wedding pictures she loved on pinterest, and in the mood-board was a running photo. She loved the atmosphere of it, and asked if we could use this idea, well of course we can! But then I wanted to create my version of it of course, and not copy the entire thing.

This hillside was the perfect spot for it! The light just came over the hill, and creates this soft light surrounding them. It really enhances the idea of their freedom, running towards the bright future ahead together.

This beautiful couple got married in Utrecht. At first, we would shoot the wedding reportage at the wedding venue. But because of very heavy rain in the morning, the natural surroundings of the venue were quite muddy. Therefore we decided to change the location, and went into the city centre instead.
I wanted to capture the beautiful city of Utrecht, where they live, together with them as newlyweds.

It is a classic shot, one that has quite some popularity at the moment, so I definetly wanted to create one. The upside-down V-shape in the photo gives it a little extra, leading your eyes towards the couple.

They said Yes! I always love the ceremony-exit photo, there is always so much joy! My task was to capture the (frequently very) short moment of time, to create a memory to last forever.

But because of very heavy rain in the morning, the natural surroundings of the venue were quite muddy. Therefore we decided to change the location, and went into the city centre instead. These arches are famous for a reason, so we had to shoot there. Stunning images: check.

We planned the wedding reportage in the nearby forest in the evening after dinner, and we were gifted with a beautiful sun that day. The forest created a beautiful display of shadows and a ray of sunlight, in which I positioned the couple to create this fairy tale like image.

This couple got married at the industrial site Strijp-S. It is a famous area in Eindhoven city (where I live), and the architecture of the buildings is very cool. I knew i wanted to capture this photo, I had it in my head before the wedding, and it turned out so cool! It's all about using the environment to create stunning shots. Nothing more.

The bride and groom made a playlist which was played in the background during dinner. It was a lovely dinner with great food and speeches from family and friends. However, at one point a particular song came on, and everybody knew: this was a cue to get wild. Nobody hesitated and started to swing their handkerchiefs up in the air. I wanted to capture the choas (the other picture) but also the greatness of the atmosphere. I climbed up another table to get a higher and wider shot to catch the overview of it all.

I wanted the greatness of the atmosphere (other picture) but also the choas in the midst of it. Not without any risk of getting hit, I positioned myself amoungst the choas, and succes!

This was the first pre-wedding shoot of the 2023 season for me. F&N are getting married this september. We planned a shoot in the evening in the woods near their home. All you need is good vibes and a little bit of sunshine.

Fred Astaire and Ginger Roger vibes! The sun and the forest together created a beautiful light and shadow pattern, almost like the effect of a disco ball. I decided to let them dance in the spot, and the light just beautifully surrounds them.
