Bij Odetfotografie draait alles om échte, pure en liefdevolle momenten. Ik ben Odet, een gepassioneerde fotograaf die houdt van het vastleggen van herinneringen zoals jullie écht zijn. Geen stijve poses, maar spontane lachjes, warme knuffels en oprechte emoties. Mijn specialiteit? Het fotograferen van gezinnen, zwangere mama’s met hun partner of gezin, pasgeboren baby’s en natuurlijk bruiloften. Of het nu gaat om de tederheid van een pasgeboren kindje, de connectie tussen geliefden of de vrolijke chaos van een gezin – ik zorg ervoor dat deze kostbare momenten voor altijd bewaard blijven. Mijn stijl is warm, tijdloos en natuurlijk. Ik werk vooral met natuurlijk licht en een ontspannen sfeer, zodat iedereen zich op zijn gemak voelt. Het resultaat? Foto’s waarin jullie jezelf herkennen en die je keer op keer met een glimlach bekijkt. Bij Odetfotografie draait het niet alleen om foto’s, maar om het vertellen van jullie verhaal. Een herinnering om voor altijd te koesteren.

I am a passionate photographer specializing in child portraits, based in a beautiful daylight studio in Amsterdam. My love for capturing the moments of childhood drives my work, as I strive to help parents preserve these precious memories for a lifetime. Children grow so quickly, and through my photography, I freeze those moments in time, allowing families to hold on to them forever. Photography, to me, is more than just taking pictures. It’s about capturing the essence of a moment, the emotions, and the energy of a child. Every child is unique, and I aim to reflect their personality and spirit in each portrait. Whether it’s a joyful smile, a curious look, or a quiet moment of wonder, I focus on capturing real, authentic emotions. My daylight studio in Amsterdam provides the perfect natural light for creating warm portraits. The light enhances the beauty of every moment, ensuring that each image is as unique and special as the child being photographed. I work closely with families to understand their vision and make sure each session is relaxed and enjoyable, resulting in timeless portraits they’ll treasure for years to come. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that the photos I create will be cherished by families for generations. Helping parents collect memories of their children’s early years is a true privilege, and I am grateful to be a part of their journey in preserving these moments for the future. I'm very grateful to be able to do what i love!

Hi I'm Lonneke, lifestyle and wedding photographer. I started as a lifestyle photographer because I wanted to capture the memories to always get something to remember. The moments of my life and the growth I made. My nephew is my favorite person to photograph. (He is 5 now haha) And with al the joy he brings to the photoshoot it why I am a photographer. To capture the happy moments of a family. Or the special moments like pregnancy or newborn. While I work in childcare, I know how fast time flies and how fast the children change. That's why it's so important to capture the moments right now. After my sister got married I fell in love with wedding photography. The spontaneous moments, the love and all the happy faces got my heart.
