Frequently asked questions

How many years of experience do you have?

7 Years

(why is this important? You learn how to deal with light, environment and locations. No day are the same, as no couple has the same taste or ideas. You learn how to maximize shooting in a small period of time. You learn how to use your light and environment optimally. Detail are important, but it’s how you shoot that uniquely every time. Moments are important, but also emotions. I do love styled shots, but usually use the ones shot while the couple are getting themselves ready or spontaneously laugh about the task. The couple’s unique relationships, Wedding theme en locations inspire me)
