beauty is when you're so
connected to your heart,
you don't need to explain anything, to anyone

why invest in portraits?
Every one or two years I also invest in portraits myself, and it's awesome to look back and see how much I've grown- and how fast life changes with time. It's also a nice gesture to myself because yes:
I'm worth it to be in the spotlight for a moment.
In daily life- when we want to spoil ourselves, often we spend money on things like food, clothes, quality time, the spa, a nice treatment; you name it. Trust me when I say I am not saying this to 'sell' you one of my packages: because you are free to invest in whatever you like. But as you will read in my reviews, images are maybe the greatest gift of all to yourself.
Why? It's the ultimate way to celebrate you.
Whether you're proud of yourself, are going through a hard time, or maybe going through a very special time- or you just feel like you deserve it. Often we feel like we need a reason to book a photoshoot, which is why so many people don't invest in photographs until they're pregnant, get married, or reach a certain goal. But we're only here for such a short time. And all we're left with is our memories. And photo's. So don't wait too long with celebrating who you have become.

about maternity portraits
I don't think it's necessary to give you a reason why: because obviously your beautiful female body has become a portal for universal wisdom to emerge as new life that's now growing inside of your body and at the same time you're rocking daily life like it's nothing and women still get paid less then men. No big deal!
Jokes aside, I still find it crazy to think about what the human body is capable of, especially during pregnancy. And I won't romanticize it too much because boy, I've seen how tough motherhood can be! Pregnancy is no joke. Many women who come to me want images to remember this short and transforming experience, but at the same time feel insecure and confused about their bodies that are changing so rapidly. And yes, sometimes that includes weight gain, acne, loss of energy, or other things that make us feel not so photo-worthy.
All I can say is that I'm the most relaxed person and I do anything possible to make you feel comfortable. When making these maternity portraits, we take our time. To get used to the camera, to prepare well, to enjoy the moment. Everything to make you feel comfortable and more beautiful in your own skin. And as you can read in my reviews, afterwards most women surprisingly say, "it wasn't so bad after all!"
Those 9 months fly by like never before.
By investing in those valuable portraits,
you can forever remember this special period in your life.

full season deal
4 business large photoshoots: one during each season of the year for a limited amount of entrepreneurs (on request).
I love helping entrepreneurs who do their part in making the world a better place, not matter if you're a coach, personal trainer, stylist, healer or you have your own shop. In the past I have coached business-owners in connecting the core of their business into a branding picture. During those coaching sessions we look for the core values of the business or the entrepreneur, which is a great point to start.
Since I have marketing experience, I know how important it is for your pictures to match your brand: which is harder than it may sound. Together with you, we look for what it is you need. Will you use the images for social media, your newsletters, your website, a flyer, or all of it? Will you need more horizontal or vertical images? Do you need impressions of energy or clear portraits? What colors can we implement so it fits your branding scheme? The list goes on and on- and as i have worked with quite some businesses/entrepeneurs, I've learned that preparation and attention to detail will create the best branding images.
The Full Season Deal
is for entrepreneurs who are online actively visible throughout the year. For a monthly rate, you will get 4 large photoshoots per year (one per season) with a discount.
Because We've all been there: stuck with winter pictures while summer is approaching (or vice versa). Stay professional and up-to-date with crisp content throughout the whole year in the same photography style. The full season package is available for a limited amount of entrepreneurs per year who like to benefit from this deal.
