Place in Netherlands
Jan van de Maat Fotografie
I love to make these type of images. Beautiful light and some old castle on the background. I let the couple make a small dance to add some action to the scene.
It was late in the afternoon and there was some time left for some extra photo's. I saw a small bridge with some really nice sunlight. I let the bride and her flower girl walk away from me and I love the way the light shines through the dresses a bit.
This photo was taken at the end of a tree lane. The lane was going upwards to a dike. The tree foliage was creating a beautiful frame. I placed the couple on the dike and let them walk a little and so could take this photo!
When it comes to friend group shots I do a formal shot and a second creative one. The idea was the guys holding the groom, the girls holding the bride. Then they had to bring the couple together for a kiss. But somehow something went wrong with the girls and almost dropped the bride on the ground. The reaction was priceless!
