As a wedding photographer I often visit South-Holland. Large cities such as Rotterdam and The Hague are popular to get married, but Dordrecht, Delft, Zoetermeer, Leiden and Gouda also have beautiful locations to celebrate your wedding. Due to the variety of cities in this beautiful province, there is a suitable wedding location for any wedding couple that is looking for the perfect spot to celebrate their love. There are also great locations for wedding photos. For example, Noordwijk and Katwijk aan Zee are always popular places for wedding photos by the sea, you can visit the older cities such as Leiden and Delft for a somewhat historic vibe, but The Hague and especially Rotterdam also offer unique modern and industrial locations.
With the many possibilities of South Holland, you are sure to find a beautiful wedding location to get married!
The story of your wedding in a series of creative and journalistic wedding photos!
Your wedding is a unique day with real emotions and moments that really only occur at weddings. A day that starts with the excitement during the preparations, a wedding ceremony full of ancient traditions and at the end a fantastic party to celebrate your love with friends and family.
The story of your wedding day, that's what wedding photography is all about. With an eye for detail and a creative view of every situation, as a wedding photographer, I capture this day in a unique way and tell the story with striking photos that you can enjoy for years to come.
Curious how a series of photos can tell the story of your wedding day? In these articles about wedding stories I show you a small selection of storytelling photos of other wedding couples who trusted me to capture their wedding day.
Have a look at all the beautiful couples who went before you and experience how even a small selection of photos can already paint a very complete picture of the these amazing weddings.
The province of South Holland offers a wide range of different wedding locations, so it would be hard not to find the perfect location here. There are wedding locations in natural parks and forests, in the large cities of Rotterdam and The Hague, and there are also beautiful mansions and castles where you can experience your wedding day to its fullest.
These are some of my favourite wedding locations in South-Holland:
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.
I've got one goal when it comes to photographing your wedding: Making sure you've got an amazing wedding without a care in the world, with the guarantee of a beautiful series of wedding photos for you to enjoy for years to come.
This will start from the moment we meet where we not only get to know each other, but also talk through all your wishes for the wedding photography. In addition, you get access to the online portal, a modern tool where I will share all wedding photos in an online gallery, but also a handy tool where you can share the planning of the day and digitally look through and approve your wedding album. Finally, I only deliver photography product of the highest quality, to ensure that even decades after the wedding your can still relive your wedding day to it's fullest.
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.
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.
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.

The choice for your photographer is a very personal one. In addition to the photographic style, the character and values of the photographer are one of the most important criteria for making your choice. When I hire someone, I like a personal approach where communication and quality is of a high standard. It is for that reason that I also apply this method as a photographer myself.
You can expect this approach from me straight away. Call me, app me or e-mail me and you can always expect a response. I can often be found on the mat, the mountain bike and photographing at other weddings, so sometimes I won't be able to respond straight away, but I will get back to you as soon as I can.
So a personal approach is very important to me and that is why I also would like to get to know you as a couple. During our introduction meeting, it is therefore mainly about you guys. I want to know everything about you, because the more I know, the better I can capture the wedding day for you.
Have a look at the photo below. I knew that the bride had a special bond with her grandfather so I was constantly looking for the right time to capture that bond. This has become one of the most important photos for this bride.
Of course, we will also talk about the planning and how photography, and especially the portraits, can best be fitted into the schedule of your busy wedding day. I have all sorts of practical tips which you can use for your wedding. I would simply like to hear everything about the wedding day so together we can also make the photos to a great success.
You'll also get access to the online portal. Everything about our collaboration ends up in this online environment. During our introduction meeting, I can explain everything about the online portal.
In addition, you can always contact me during the preparations for questions or tips. Changes to the schedule can be communicated through the portal, I will see any changes you make instantly.
Shortly before the wedding we will schedule a call to go through all the details for the last time to make sure that I am aware of everything that will happen during your wedding day. And then the time has finally come!
Nowadays the internet is indispensable in our daily lives. Everyone owns a smartphone and is online nowadays. This is why I use the most modern tools to provide an experience for you as a wedding couple where convenience, clarity and style are paramount.
All the couples who book me as their wedding photographer receive a complete package. This includes access to the online portal. Not only is this a very cool and handy tool for you, but it's also software that I use on a daily bases and makes sure that all my services and communication run smoothly. In addition, the portal also includes an online gallery that is easy to share with friends and family and can be used to download the high res images, so you can store them yourself. Wonder what your album will look like? The design proofing function will help you to see the design and approve it online.
An online environment where all your photos can be seen and can be shared with all friends and family after the wedding. In short, that's the gallery.
USB sticks are already old fashion these days. Technical developments are going forward so fast that the newest laptops no longer have a USB input anyway. Everything is connected to the internet and that is why the online gallery is so enormously valuable.
It is fast, simple, looks nice and very important nowadays, it works flawlessly on all devices. Details such as security and accessibility have also been thought through and photos can even be organised into different categories. Have a look below.
You get exclusive digital rights to be the only one to be able to download the files in high resolution and of course without my company logo. Also, you can decide which photos can be seen by friends and family. You may find some photos a bit too personal and you don't necessarily want to share them, you can easily hide these photos from others who visit the gallery.
The gallery also contains useful functions to select your favourites. This feature is most often used to pick your photos for the wedding album.
Are you interested in ordering prints? Then I can even create a prints gallery for you in which you can easily see what the photo looks like on the wall.
After I have received your favourite photos selection through the gallery, I will start designing the album. The layout depends on the size of the album you choose. Photos really do come into their own when they are printed in large format, so I don't recommend selecting too many photos, it will look messy very quickly.
As soon as I have finished the first design you can review it via the portal in the design proofing section. You can browse through the pages and even make notations where you would like to see adjustments. After the requested adjustments, you can approve the design and it will be sent to the producer. Below is an example of a large album 35x35 cm in which the wedding couple asks to make the text slightly smaller.
In addition to these parts of the portal, some formalities have also been considered. There is a page that shows all different album types and materials, there are forms to share some contact details with me (for example the ceremony master or contact details of the wedding venue) and there is a very useful form in which you can fill in the planning for the wedding day so there is never a misunderstanding about the schedule. Even the invoices can be viewed and downloaded.
And the best part, it's all online and available whenever you want!
