Getting married in North-Holland
Wedding photographer from North-Holland
As a wedding photographer from North-Holland, I know the area like no other. It feels wonderful when I can capture weddings in cities like Haarlem, Alkmaar, Amsterdam or the smaller villages such as Bloemendaal, Heemstede, Zandvoort or the villages in Het Gooi. Capturing a wedding day in this province is very special to me. Not only because of the rich history of the big cities and smaller villages but also because of the great environment surrounding everything such as the beach, the dunes, forests and the fantastic old mansions and castles.
In the big cities, I know where to find great locations for stunning wedding portraits, but I also definitely know my way outside of the cities in the many national parks, natural areas and the beach to create creative and stunning wedding photos. I like to use the environment to my advantage in my wedding photography and North-Holland is a great province to use as a backdrop to give the journalistic and creative wedding photos that extra bit of character.

Me and my wife Roxy got married at Orangerie Elswout, a fantastic wedding location in a fairytale environment near Haarlem. But that is by no means the only great wedding location in North-Holland. There are many castles and mansions, industrial locations and you can even get married on the beach. Wherever you live in North-Holland, there is always an amazing location available!
These are (besides the Orangerie of course) some of my favourite wedding locations in the Haarlem area:

This is me
In short, I am a creative person who loves life, my family / friends and my cat, Snow. I love sports and can regularly be found on the mat for some Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or in the dunes and even the Alps to race off the most beautiful trails with my mountain bike. I travel a lot and also like to photograph in my spare time. Also, I spend a lot of time with my wife Roxy and I am a bit of a geek, who, in addition to playing video games and reading books, also loves the technical side of photography.
I have always had a creative side and that was expressed during my teens by playing the drums. It was the love of drums and music in general that made me decide to study sound engineering when I finished high school. During this study, I met my wife Roxy. She was the one who started her fashion blog after a few years of dating and stuffed a camera in my hands to take pictures for her. A photographer was born.
Quality, creativity and a personal approach
What makes my wedding photography unique?
Many photographers will claim to be the best, but are they the best for you as a wedding couple? Having a good healthy relationship and chemistry with your photographer is very important, you need to feel comfortable in front of the camera. In addition to that feeling, the complete package is extremely important and after searching for a few wedding photographers, you will notice that photographing a wedding is actually so much more than just taking pictures.
In my case, it is the quality, creativity and personal approach that make me unique. With these 3 core values, I guarantee all my clients an amazing series of beautiful wedding photos that will make them relive their wedding over and over again.
Quality of my photography
When I talk about quality, I mean the complete package of my service as a wedding photographer. These are of course the photos, which are captured with professional cameras and the best lenses. The post-processing of the photos in a colourful and high-contrast way so that they really stand out. But you also see it in the products I offer. I only supply top of the line products, all my albums are handmade, I produce prints up to A2 size myself and all my customers get access to their very own online portal with online gallery included.
Creativity in the wedding photos themselves
Photography is an art form and it is therefore important to view situations from multiple points of view. It is about the story of the wedding day and the way the story is being told in a series of powerful photographs. Creatively capturing those beautiful moments and small details during the wedding, that's how I distinguish myself as a wedding photographer. Just go through my portfolio and you will immediately see what I mean by this.
A personal approach that's shown throughout my service
In my brochure, I have added a part of why this personal approach in wedding photography is so important. A fun test shows you why I would like to get to know you and why a good conversation to get to know you as a couple is vital to my work as a wedding photographer. If you are curious about what I mean with this 'test', you're welcome to request my brochure.

Freedom of choice
I would like to give you the freedom to make your own choice regarding the number of hours that I am present at the wedding and the products that you purchase. I understand that there is not always space for large prints or a huge album and because of this I rathere leave this decision up to you. So in short, you first determine the number of hours you would like me to be present and then choose the product package that fits with your needs.

Storytelling wedding photography
My way of working
The purpose of my photography is to provide a tangible memory of the most beautiful day of your life, your wedding. It's all about the complete experience, from the first introduction to the delivery of the album. And believe it or not, this ,strangely enough, starts with you. Of course, you will first have to contact me actively, but as soon as we get to know each other I will also have to get to know you both. That is why it is important that you open up to me. In the book '7 habits of highly effective people', Stephan R. Covey explains how important it is to see a situation from the perspective of the other person to really understand the situation. I implement this way of thinking in my work as a wedding photographer and attach great importance to getting to know my clients. Only then can I guarantee the quality, creativity and personal approach that I promise to all the wedding couples that book me.
The above is all very generic. That is why below I talk about a few concrete points that make me unique in my approach, which are important for you to know about in order to make the final decision for your wedding photographer.
My style
Journalistic and creative wedding photography, that's how you can summarize my style. Journalistic because I capture all those beautiful moments and emotions that are so important to tell the story of your wedding day. And creatively because I look at the situation just a little bit differently. I love crazy angles and use very unusual lenses that have a unique character and therefore also provide one-of-a-kind wedding photos. I will edit most of the photos in colour, but black and white will also be part of the final selection. Ultimately this all comes together in a series of beautiful wedding photos that really tell the story of your wedding day and will be delivered to you digitally, as well as in a physical wedding album and print.
Online portal en gallery
I like to use all the modern tools that are available today to take my work to a higher level. This doesn't only concern the photos and products I offer but is also about the entire experience that you, my clients, go through. I use a very modern online portal, a personal online environment where everything concerning our cooperation is brought together online.
The online portal contains:
- A tool with which you can view and approve the album design.
- Formalities such as invoices and the contract (no more hassle with paper versions).
- All the important dates with all our appointments.
- Handy digital forms where you can find my complete price list and where you can fill in the planning of the day.
- But the best feature must be the online gallery. This is where all your digital photos will end up and is easily sharable with all friends and family after the wedding. Logged in, you have the power to hide specific photos to the public and you get the ability to download all the digital files in high resolution and without any logos.
Luxurious wedding albums and prints
Printing your photos is extremely important to keep the memory tangible. How many holiday-photos do you have saved on your computer that you will never see again? For your wedding photos, it is time to make sure they can be admired at any given moment. After all, you invest your money in a good photographer, so it is important that the photos are easily accessible and able to be viewed as much as possible!
The best way to do this is, is by creating a luxurious wedding album and a nice big print which you can hang on the wall. That's why I always deliver a high-quality album that I will personally design for you. Also, an A3 print is included when you hire me as your wedding photographer. By printing your photos, the memories stay within reach. You can grab your album from the coffee table at any given time and relive the best day of your lives over and over again.
