Nicole Bosch

I am a big fan of black and white pictures. But when I pressed the shutter, I already knew that I wouldn't edit this picture in black and white. The great blue sky on a sunny summer morning. The beautiful lonely green tree. The classic cabriolet and ... the stunning wedding couple. A great mix of colors and elements.

Hans and Nicole got married in my hometown Zwolle. At Librije's Hotel. A really beautiful hotel, located in a building that used to be the prison of Zwolle. And it was also the spot where Hans asked Nicole to marry him. It was an autumn wedding with beautiful weather. For me this picture is the 'proof' that you can find great places to shoot wedding pictures everywhere. I took this picture next to the hotel, in the middle of the city, at a parking lot. But from the angle I chose, it doesn't show at all!

I love the tradition of throwing rice after a wedding ceremony. Unfortunately it is forbidden in a lot of places in the Netherlands. Most of the times people are blowing bubbles or toss rose petals. So having the opportunity to photograph people throwing rice is very rare. That's why I really love this picture, where bride Xenia and some of the wedding guests are literally pelted with rice.

Stijn and Willemijn got married on a sunny day in August. Their wedding day was exactly 6 years after the day they first met each other. They had an outdoor ceremony at the beautiful castle Engelenburg in Brummen, which is surrounded by some magical old trees.

A wedding day without sunshine, but with lots of rain and wind... Not really the weather the bride and groom hoped for.Luckily we found a great indoor photo location for their shoot: an old factory with great light!

Especially in the combination with lots of wind. On the wedding day of bride Susan we had both, which resulted in this picture.

Anne and Mark got married in may. They hoped for beautiful weather and an outdoor ceremony. But in the Netherlands, you never know what the weather will be, even in spring. They wanted to take pictures at this sand dune, because they love to come here in their free time. And while taking photo's of the two of them, the wind started blowing and dark clouds came rolling in. Not the weather they wished for, but when the veil started to blow in the wind, the magic happened!
