How do I book a shoot?
Send me a message through the contact page. Tell me what kind of shoot you have in mind, a date (or a few options) and where you’d like it to be. I’ll get back to you with my availability, and we confirm a date together.
How far in advance should I book?
For weddings: The earlier, the better! Popular dates in spring and summer can book up quickly, so I recommend reaching out as soon as you have a date in mind.
For maternity, family, and proposal shoots: Booking a few weeks in advance is usually plenty of time.
Need a last-minute shoot? Don’t hesitate to get in touch! I’ll always do my best to make it work if I’m available.
Are your prices including BTW?
I’m part of the KOR (Small Businesses Scheme), which means I don’t charge VAT (BTW). All prices listed on my pricing page are final, with no additional VAT.
Travel fees outside of Amsterdam are not included.
Is there a discount if I book more than one shoot?
Yes. Book a proposal shoot and a wedding package together, and you get 10% off both.
Where does the shoot take place?
Wherever feels like you: at home, outside in your favourite spot, or a location we choose together. Tell me what you have in mind and I’ll help you find the right place and light.
We’re not used to being in front of a camera. Is that a problem?
Not at all, most people aren’t. I’ll guide you through it, without stiff poses. The best photos happen in between: when you laugh, look at each other or forget about the camera for a moment.
What should we wear?
Something you feel comfortable and like yourself in. Soft, calm colours that go well together usually work best; big logos and very busy prints can be distracting. Not sure? Send me a few options and I’ll help you choose.
How many people can join a family or maternity shoot?
Up to 5 people are included. Each extra person is € 50, up to 10 people in total.
With children, 10 people is a big group: I can’t guarantee that everyone looks at the camera at the same time. The photos will still be fun and natural.
When is the best time for a maternity shoot?
Most people choose somewhere between 28 and 34 weeks of pregnancy: your bump is clearly visible, and you usually still feel comfortable moving around. But every pregnancy is different, so we’ll plan it around how you feel.
What if it rains?
For an outdoor shoot we’ll keep an eye on the weather together. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll look for a new date or move inside. And sometimes a grey sky is beautiful too.
How many photos will we get?
Maternity and family: 60 edited photos. Proposal: 40. Weddings: 250, 500 or 800 depending on the package. With film, you also get the photos from the roll(s), roughly 34 per roll.
How will we receive the photos?
In a private online gallery, where you can view, download and share them with family and friends.
When will we get our photos?
Your receive a small preview within a week, and the full gallery within a month after the shoot. For weddings, you receive the preview within a week as well, but the gallery can take up to 2 months.
What is the difference between film and diafilm?
Film (negative film) gives that soft, warm look with natural grain, in colour or black & white. Diafilm is slide film: rich colour and strong contrast, the picture is the film itself.

Can I add film to any shoot?
Yes: film is an add-on to maternity, family, proposal and wedding shoots. One roll (± 34 photos) is € 100, diafilm is € 200 per roll. For weddings I recommend 2 or 3 rolls, and you can combine film and diafilm.
Do I get the negatives?
Yes. With film you get the negatives, with diafilm you get the slides themselves, together with the scanned photos in your gallery.
