Your happiest moments & biggest milestones
Heartwarming photography in and around Amsterdam for you, your baby & your family
If you’re looking to celebrate life,
You’ve come to the right place.
Whether you’ve just celebrated your first positive pregnancy test, or are looking for photos for the grandparents’ mantelpiece - I will create a photo session that fits you and your story.
Especially in today’s fast-paced world, we tend to forget to slow down and enjoy the moment. Rather than adding to the endless photos in your camera roll, I offer you a connective experience, with a ready-to-print carefully selected series of photos that will
last you a lifetime.
01. Pregnancy
Your body, on your terms. Whether that be a relaxing shoot in the comfort of your own home, going out exploring in nature, or a radically creative shoot in my studio. Together we'll have a look at what suits you best.
02. Birth Story
The very first beginning, exactly the way it was. Like a fly on the wall, I'm able to document you bringing your baby into the world and sharing your first moments together in a relaxed, non-intrusive way.
03. Newborn
They only stay this little for an unfair amount of time... That's why I'd love to come by as soon as you like for a quiet, easy-going newborn shoot at your home.
04. Family Portrait
Exactly the way you are. A spontaneous, relaxed session with just your children or the entire family, at home or outdoors, with an emphasis on the small moments in-between.
How wonderful that you’re here!
Planning a photoshoot can feel a little exciting and nerve-wracking —
kind of like getting on a Ferris wheel at the fair (or is that just me?). Every type of shoot comes with its own questions, and feeling comfortable and at ease with your photographer makes all the difference.
That’s why I’m always available to answer any questions you may have. On this website, you’ll also find all kinds of blog posts you can browse through, so you’ll get a clear idea of what to expect and how to prepare in the best way possible.

Maternity Shoot
Yes, everything changes when you’re pregnant.
But you are still you —
and that deserves to be celebrated too.
That’s why I love capturing you in a way that truly feels like you.
If that means twirling around in the beach dunes or smelling flowers in a field, then we’ll do exactly that — I love those kinds of shoots. But if you’d rather go for something more unconventional or mysterious, or if you want to show how sexy you are, especially now, you’re absolutely in the right place with me too.

Birth Story
And then the moment has finally come:
You’re about to welcome your child into this world.
One of the most exciting, intense, and unforgettable moments of your life — something you’ll want to look back on again and again in the years to come.
I would love to help you preserve those memories. With a silent camera (no clicking sounds), I remain quietly in the background, capturing the important moments as they unfold. That way, everyone present can fully focus on you and your baby in a calm and peaceful atmosphere.

Newborn
An intense, exhausting, but also incredibly beautiful chapter is about to begin — those first days after birth.
So tiny, so precious, and it all passes by so quickly!
That’s exactly why you’ll want to capture this moment — the very beginning of this new little life — as soon as possible.
For families where I also provide maternity care, I often take these photos during the very first week, in between everything else. For families with their own maternity nurse, that is usually a little early, but I’m happy to visit as soon as you feel ready.

Family Portrait
No stiff poses or forced smiles,
but a snapshot of who you truly are right now.
The hugs in between moments, children running around, a hand resting on someone’s shoulder, the little glances you might not normally even notice — those are exactly the moments that make a photograph meaningful.
Whether you’re coming with young children, have a larger family, or would love to include grandparents in the photos, I’ll capture you in a relaxed and natural way.
