FAQ

I offer the following photoshoots:

• Couple
• Family
• Wedding
• Portrait
• Group
• Business
• Analog
• Tulip

You can tailor your photoshoot to your preferences at checkout.

For digital photoshoots, I work with a medium-format camera and carefully choose my lenses and settings to create a film aesthetic with cinematic warmth straight from the camera.

Analog is a different experience. I use a vintage film camera, and you will see the photos only after the film has been developed and scanned. You can book Analog as a standalone photoshoot or combine it with a digital photoshoot.

Select the Analog Photofilm add-on at checkout or later in My Photoshoot for €150 to combine digital and analog photography in one booking.

As a professional photographer based in Amsterdam, I offer photoshoots throughout the Netherlands. Frequent locations include:

• Amsterdam
• Haarlem
• Utrecht
• Leiden
• The Hague
• Delft
• Rotterdam
• Keukenhof
• Zaanse Schans

Any travel costs or location surcharges that apply are included in the checkout total and shown before you pay.

The booking calendar shows my current availability. Any time slot you can select is available to book.

Book your photoshoot in three simple steps:

1. Select an available time slot and location.
2. Share your story and ideas.
3. Complete the checkout.

At checkout, you can pay a €50 deposit or the full booking amount. You can pay using any of the following payment methods:

• Visa
• MasterCard
• American Express
• Apple Pay
• Google Pay
• PayPal
• iDEAL | Wero

If you choose the €50 deposit, you can pay the remaining amount at any time in My Photoshoot, or directly after your photoshoot using Tap to Pay.

Your photoshoot gift card contains a unique code that you enter under the voucher tab at checkout. The gift card covers the amount shown on it; any remaining balance is paid at checkout.

I’ll guide you with simple direction and movement throughout the photoshoot, so you can relax, be yourself, and feel natural in front of the camera.

I’ll suggest a beautiful area and route based on the light, atmosphere, and surroundings, using natural light and distinctive backdrops to create cinematic portraits. If you have another area in mind and we decide to shoot there, we’ll work with the conditions we find and adapt as we go.

Light changes throughout the day, and every type has its own character. Working with it is part of my craft, so I adapt to the available light to keep your portraits consistent with the quality and atmosphere you see throughout my portfolio.

I avoid crowded areas where possible, although Amsterdam’s streets are public and weekdays are usually quieter than weekends. For a one-hour photoshoot, we stay within one area, as moving between separate areas reduces the time available for photography.

I don’t photograph at residential locations, such as private homes or holiday rentals. Photoshoots take place outdoors or at professional venues.

Feel free to change outfits during your booked time. I recommend keeping it to one or two outfits. A second adds variety, while a third usually takes time we can better spend photographing.

Since photoshoots take place on location, you can usually change in the restroom of a nearby café or venue, or outdoors where your outfit allows. I’ll also share helpful outfit suggestions before your photoshoot. Hair and makeup are entirely up to you.

Pets are very welcome and often bring some of the most spontaneous moments to a photoshoot. If we use a professional venue, please check in advance that pets are allowed.

Bringing your pet costs nothing extra.

Since I host multiple photoshoots during the day, I recommend booking any extra time in advance, as I may not be able to extend the photoshoot on the day.

You can also finish earlier if you wish. I work with fixed packages, and the booked duration gives us enough time to settle into the photoshoot and create a varied gallery without rushing, so finishing early does not change the package price.

Please be on time.

If you are up to 30 minutes late, we will continue with the photoshoot for the remaining booked time.

If you are more than 30 minutes late, the photoshoot is canceled and the €50 deposit is nonrefundable. Any amount paid above €50 is refunded.

Yes. Every photo from your photoshoot is uploaded to your gallery, so nothing is held back. Your booking includes a set number of photos you can download at no extra charge, based on the photoshoot type and duration.

A longer photoshoot includes more photos, so extending the duration gives you more included downloads. Found more favorites? You can download all additional photos for €7 each.

Want to keep the original negatives from your analog photos? Select the Original Negatives add-on at checkout or later in My Photoshoot for €50 and receive the developed film itself, a tangible keepsake and the original archive of your analog photos.

Your digital gallery is normally ready within 7 days after your photoshoot, provided any outstanding balance has been paid. If you pay the remaining balance later, the 7-day period starts on the payment date. During peak season, public holidays, and unusually busy periods, delivery may take a little longer.

Your analog photos are normally available within 15 days, as the film first needs to be developed and scanned by the lab.

Can’t wait to see your photos? Select the Priority Delivery add-on at checkout or later in My Photoshoot for €50 and receive your digital gallery within 1 day. Priority Delivery applies to digital photos only.

I don’t edit or retouch the photos. I create the look in camera by carefully choosing my lenses and settings to capture a film aesthetic with cinematic warmth. This keeps each photo natural and authentic, true to the moment.

Part of this signature look comes from the artistic lenses I use, which can add a painterly quality through subtle vignetting, swirly bokeh, and natural soft focus. On sunny days, you may also notice gentle glare or halo. These characteristics are intentional parts of the look and help give the portraits their cinematic feel. Because they are created in camera, they remain part of the finished photos.

If you’re self-conscious about something, please let me know before the photoshoot so I can be mindful of it while photographing you.

You can order professional prints directly from your gallery, with free express delivery.

Every photoshoot also includes a €25 print credit, giving you a head start on turning your favorites into something tangible. Just use it before your gallery expires.

Your gallery stays available for one month from the delivery date.

Select the Extended Gallery add-on at checkout or in My Photoshoot for €50 to extend your gallery access from one month to one year and receive five additional photo downloads. You can still add it after your photoshoot, until your gallery expires.

The photos may be featured in my portfolio, such as on Instagram or my website. If you prefer the photos not to be featured, you can let me know at any time.

If I confirm that the weather makes the photoshoot impractical, you can reschedule without extra cost or move the photoshoot to a professional indoor venue. You arrange and pay for the venue.

Light rain is usually not a problem. A stylish umbrella can add a distinctly Dutch feel to the photos.

After booking, you receive a link to My Photoshoot. There you can see your booking, reschedule or cancel, add add-ons and pay the remaining amount. You can also log in at any time via Log in at the top of this site.

You can reschedule in My Photoshoot by choosing a new available time slot.

You can reschedule without extra cost within 24 hours of booking or at least 14 days before your photoshoot. Any amount already paid or covered by a gift card carries over.

If you reschedule later, a €50 payment is required to secure the new time slot. The original €50 deposit is nonrefundable, and the new €50 payment becomes the deposit for the rescheduled booking. Any remaining amount already paid or covered by a gift card carries over.

You can cancel your photoshoot with a full refund within 24 hours of booking or at least 30 days before it starts. If you cancel later, the €50 deposit is nonrefundable. Any amount paid above €50 is refunded.

You can cancel in My Photoshoot. Before you confirm, you see exactly how much is refunded.

When you cancel in My Photoshoot, any refund due is processed automatically, and at the latest within 1 working day. How long the refund takes to arrive depends on the payment method used.

If a gift card was used, any refundable amount is returned to the payment method used to purchase the gift card, not to the gift card itself.

You can read the Terms and Conditions.
