As they stood hand in hand, surrounded by nature's grandeur, the mountains whispered tales of eternal love while the river nearby murmured its soothing melodies, creating a symphony of serenity that echoed their deep bond. In this tranquil haven, amidst the picturesque scenery of the Austrian Lechtal, their love story unfolded, captured in every frame of this unforgettable moment.

How beautiful emotion is. The profound love between two people truly radiates when vows are being recited. The most enchanting words are spoken to each other, and the bride and groom are often deeply moved by their significant other.

This is also evident with this couple, where the groom is profoundly touched by his bride. Anticipating the emerging emotions with my sixth sense, I captured this emotional moment by waiting with the camera, seeking the best angle to capture the tear in the groom's eye. A precious and cherished moment for the newlyweds.

The photo was taken in Limburg, a beautiful and tranquil place in Heerlen, featuring a pond and lovely sunlight. I immediately noticed the reflection that could complete the entire scene. However, there was one problem: no way to get to the opposite side of the water where the bride and groom were.

Now, you might wonder, "But you still took the photo."
That's correct; we're not easily deterred. I took out the drone, positioned it in the middle of the pond, just above the water. This way, I found the perfect angle to capture this photo!

Together with this beautiful couple, I was in Austria last summer. We extended their wedding celebrations with a photoshoot in a stunning location in the Austrian mountains. This photo was taken in a small village, capturing the expansive view of the mountains with rugged rocks, waterfalls, and the bride and groom in the foreground. The perfect canvas for this photo!

The picturesque Heuvelland served as the stunning backdrop for our enchanting after-wedding photoshoot. Amidst rolling hills and lush greenery, the newlyweds shared intimate moments captured in the soft, golden light of the setting sun. Each snapshot reflected the serenity of their post-wedding bliss, a testament to the enduring love that blossomed on their special day, just like this stunning moment!

I captured the wedding of this lovely couple amidst the picturesque Limburg landscape. This particular photograph was snapped in a forest on one of the hills in Limburg.

Two months ahead of the wedding, the bride contacted me via mail with a special request: a photograph while riding a carousel. Without hesitation, I agreed to the idea. And now, here is the outcome of our endeavor!

The wedding started with unfavorable weather in the morning, forcing us to adjust our plans and move the ceremony indoors. However, as the day progressed, the weather transformed, revealing a glorious sun in the afternoon. During this time, I discovered a radiant moment when the sun gently pierced through the leaves, creating an ideal opportunity for a perfect photograph.

After the ceremony the bride and groom where surprised by the guest with flower petals. The groom made this funny face and right at the same tine a petal was between me and him. Funny moment with perfect timing!

We only had about 10 minutes before a big storm broke loose at the wedding location. In this small window I needed to perform, quickly pose the couple on at the shoot location and improvise with the changing light.

Turned out to this and several other photo's that are just perfect! Beautiful couple at the perfect location!
