On the island Terschelling I shot this couple.
A nice decor (a piece of famous art on the island) made it a beautiful composition.

A couple with a very turbulent year, you can feel the emotions, when they find shelter at eachother.

A beautiful couple and some night flashes are all the ingredients you need for a photo like this. I love the simplicity of it.

I really love this composition.
The bride was pregnant, the weather very very windy as it was a November wedding, but you can feel the love between this young couple. She was so "bold" and didn't want to wear a coat (and trust me it was freezin' cold due to the hard wind)

I really love this low light composition. As all the attention goes to the beautiful and proud couple!

Yes I used some flashlights overhere. The summerlight was really hard, the flashes make the couple more soft and make them pop up from the background.

Water, trees; nature at it's fullest and a beautiful couple to make this picture stunning !

A hot summer night on the beach of Terschelling. The couple decided to take a walk on the beach.

Art at sea in 8 beaufort.
While the wind was blowing the clouds in an amazing landscape and the couple was almost blown away in the sea i made this photo on the most beautiful island of the Netherlands: Terschelling.

As a Land Rover Defender driver i got in contact with this couple years ago.
The couple has the same passion for old Land Rover series and defenders. So i was very happy that they got married in their old 'fellow'. The dunes, the sky, the car, it all came together in one pic, which i really really love.

oisters, oisters, oisters.... the bride loved them so much :)

What a fun shoot with this lovely couple, the room was the perfect location for a shoot with a blink ;)

The forest, the light, it all came together on this autumn wedding with this lovely couple :)

In an awesome old castle we made this lovely picture from this couple. It was cold and windy but that was excellent circumstances for the bride's veill.

The bride just run from the dance floor inside outdoors to the terrace of the venue to throw the bouquet, i followed from the dance floor, rapidly set my flash to the very very very dark outdoor setting on the beach (while running) with practically no light outside, and caught the throwing from the bouquet, but even better this moment; after her besty caught the bouquet and they were celebrating. Priceless moments!!

A wedding on Terschelling. My favorite Dutch island, where i am on regular basis. On the south part the island is protected with a dike where we went for this photo. The clouds make it an atmospheric and complete composition.
The couple has this photo in their livingroom now in big format above their lounge suite. So lovely! A bigger compliment you can not get as a photographer i guess.

A beautiful hotel hall was our scenery today. And an amazing and lovely couple. Beautiful windows and lines made this lovely picture a stunning piece of art.

On the beautiful "island" Voorne Putten in the south of Holland.nearby Rotterdam. is the river "Haringvliet" situated.
water, rocks, plants and rest. Nature does the rest.

A winterwedding with the nicest temperatures possible :) The moment the sun shows itselve behind the trees and the sound of silence in the forest.

In this place where architecture, colors and lines where all over the place i found the possibility to place the couple in line to create a beautiful silhouette with the existing backlight. The colors in the building do not distract the attention from the couple, as the couple is only shown as a dark outline. In a chaotic place with lots of distractions it still became a quiet photo, where your attention is guided to the couple naturally.
