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.

Sweet meetings at central station Rotterdam should be captured on that special wedding day.
Just add one flash and a lovely couple.

Such a very windy day at the beginning of September in Rotterdam. We started for a walking shoot and the bride and groom came down from the stairs. I did see the reflection and the wind in the veil and start shooting the hell out of it with this beautiful result.

A winter wedding with a beautiful sunset. A Dutch couple and a lovely castle on a day without wind.
I Love this landscape picture a lot!

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.

It was a very hot Dutch summer, which means when temperatures rise its most of the time quite hot and moisty. The Castle was warm as well and when the bride decided to open the window the wind came in to blow the veil away, the mirror did his own thing which made the scenery perfect for a shot like this.

"Come wander with my love". The couple wandering through the fields; the rain just stopped. Clouds above their heads. The wind stopped blowing and all we heard was the silence of fall.

These three musketeers on the beach, hard light. The sun was really bride... we found a little wall of sand between the dunes and with the perfect blue sky it was like a fresh little fairytale :)

Just before the groom came in, she opened the window to check out where mister groom was outside at that moment...
the light on the painting was perfect. It was like the guy on the painting was watching what was happening at that moment... It took me just one click to make the magic happen! What a lovely bride!

As a kitesurfer, the beach is one of my favorite places to be. Today I had a bride and groom who kitesurf too. I captured this surf-couple on their spot in Holland. It was at the end of the day; the sea was nice and calm and the only company was little birds at the seaside. A very dreamy surrounding for o lovely romantic shot.

The first day of spring and lovely weather. The clouds disappeared and the veil of the bride was waving in the wind. As I love to capture landscapes with couples as the subject I made this lovely picture of this lovely bride and groom.
