Portrait photographers

Based in Leiden, Netherlands, I’m Stephanie: lifestyle photographer, mom of two “Irish twins,” and passionate visual storyteller . My journey began in the depths of postnatal depression. Photography became my healing—transforming fleeting moments into lasting memories . Today, I craft authentic, emotion-rich portraits—pregnancy, newborn, family, portrait, and “Mama & Me” shoots—rooted in genuine connection. My work isn’t about perfect poses; it’s about the laughter, tenderness, and small details that make your story uniquely yours . With a warm, down-to-earth approach (and yes, I’m “a bit clumsy” and always smiling) (), I aim to make sessions feel natural and joyful. My mission? To help you relive the emotions behind each moment—so when you look back, you don’t just see the photo, you feel it. Let’s write your next chapter together.

Hi! I’m Sarah, born in 1980 and mother to three wonderful, now grown-up daughters. Photography became an important part of my life after the great loss of a loved one. It made me realize how valuable a photo can be—a lasting memory that brings so much comfort in times of grief. When working with children, I love their pure spontaneity. When they feel free in front of the camera, something magical happens. Capturing that uninhibited joy is truly special. Young people radiate energy and playfulness, sometimes with a hint of insecurity. I help them relax so they dare to show their true selves—whether it’s a spontaneous laugh or a dreamy gaze. That’s when their personality really shines. Adults are often critical of themselves, but I show them how beautiful they are just as they are. In a relaxed atmosphere, with subtle guidance, a strong and natural portrait emerges. I make sure you look your best while staying true to yourself. Seniors carry so many stories within them. Every wrinkle tells a tale, every glance radiates warmth. I capture them with pride and tenderness—sometimes with a mischievous sparkle in their eyes.

Hi, I'm Mignon – the heart and soul behind Hey Mama Fotografie. I specialize in capturing the raw, real, and deeply emotional moments of motherhood. From the quiet anticipation of pregnancy to the overwhelming love of those first newborn days, my goal is to create timeless images that tell your story. My style is soft, intimate, and full of warmth—focused on genuine connections rather than stiff poses. I want every mother to look at her photos and feel the love, strength, and beauty in her journey. Through my lens, I celebrate the little details—the way tiny hands reach for yours, the loving glances, the quiet moments in between. These are the memories that matter, and I'm here to preserve them for you.

Hi! I’m Lisa, a lifestyle and portrait photographer based in Maassluis, South Holland. I specialize in capturing pure, heartfelt moments. Whether it’s the magic of a wedding day, the quiet wonder of a newborn, or the joy of a growing family. My style is warm, natural, and filled with emotion. My photography is all about storytelling. I’m drawn to the in-between moments. The soft glances, wind in the hair, the way hands reach for one another. I avoid stiff posing and instead guide my clients with gentle prompts to spark real connection and emotion. I want your photos to feel like you, not a version of you staged for the camera. Clients often tell me they were surprised by how relaxed they felt during our shoot. That’s important to me. I know being in front of a camera can feel vulnerable, so I create a calm, easygoing atmosphere where you can be yourself. Whether we’re walking through a forest, playing with your kids on the beach, or embracing the rain. My goal is always to capture moments that feel alive and true. I work with natural light and love locations that add a touch of magic. Fields, dunes, cozy homes, or quiet city corners. My editing style is soft and warm, adding just a bit of depth to bring out the beauty that’s already there. If you’re looking for someone who sees the beauty in the everyday, who’ll help you freeze time just for a moment, and who genuinely cares about your story. Let’s make memories you’ll want to return to, again and again.

"I capture pure emotion and expression, from newborn to 100. Eyes tell the story—my studio offers the perfect relaxed setting for timeless portraits."

Creating a powerful and timeless portrait is about so much more than just pressing a button. It’s about connection — that look in the eyes. A pure gaze, one you can keep staring at. So intense, it moves you. It silences you. Not just a quick snapshot, but a piece of art to last a lifetime. That’s what I love to create most. ♡

I have been photographing for more than 40 years, both privately and professionally, covering everything from motor racing to model photography. My interest lies in people, so I spend my time on portrait and street photography. My goal is to capture the moment and the presence.

FOTOGRAFIE is de ENIGE TAAL die overal ter WERELD wordt BEGREPEN Mijn foto’s zijn gecreëerd met oog voor detail, emotie en expressie. Ik geniet ervan om mensen op hun mooist vast te leggen.

Dog and horse photographer & videographer from The Netherlands. It's my passion to capture the love between animals and humans. The connection is so beautiful and with every combination it feels different. That makes it so special to capture the bond the way I see it through my camera. With another perspective than people do by theirselves. I love to capture dogs and horses and the bond with their humans in nature, with a feeling of freedom. But I also get excited of all the dressage combinations in the ring, on different levels. Photo's, video's and reels, I love to do it all.

Hi, I’m Aydah, a photographer from the Netherlands. I have a passion for capturing real emotions and special moments. In my studio with daylight I would like to create those special memories together with you and/or your kids!

Dieper ingaan op hoe liefde ons leven verrijkt, en hoe we deze momenten kunnen koesteren. Het is belangrijk om te beseffen dat het niet altijd voortkomt uit grote gebeurtenissen, maar vaak uit de kleine dingen in het leven.

Ich liebe das spiel mit Licht und Schatten, gepaart mit echten Emotionen. Die Fotografie sehe ich als Reise, ob vor oder hinter der Kamera gehen wir auf die Suche nach uns selbst, nach dem verborgenen ich und dem gegenüber. Wenn wir uns die Zeit nehmen, lässt uns jeder Weggefährte neue Facetten von uns selber, unseren Mitmenschen und dem Leben entdecken.

Hi there, I'm Hatice Langkemper. I truly enjoy photography because it allows me to capture moments, emotions, and beauty in a way that words often can't. It gives me the chance to express my creativity and to tell stories through images. Photography helps me appreciate the little things in life. It’s both a form of art and a way of preserving memories, and that combination makes it incredibly rewarding for me. Based in Zwanenburg a village nearby Haarlem, I specialize in portraits, branding, family, but I'm always up for an adventure wherever the story takes me. I can tailor it to match your exact vibe!
