Documentary photoshoot

to show your relationship as it is.

  • Are you ok with a photoshoot without pictures where everyone at once is smiling into the camera?

    Do you appreciate photographed details where sometimes you do not see a whole person/place but for example holding hands?

    Do you feel like your daily routines, your home, moment that you are in is something you want to remember as it is?

    Do you see life as a whole with all the cries, tantrums, and tiredness?

    Do you want to freeze this moment with all its emotions?

    Then yes, this is for you!

    If you want to have a bit more control over what will be in the pictures - choose lifestyle.

  • Here is the main difference between unposed and posed photoshoots. It depends on what kind of moment we will be photographing - but you do you. My job will be to compose frames ad hoc as time goes on. To create great shots without posing you or telling you what to do.

    By planning time together we will create more moments for you to interact with each other.

    Some ideas for an unposed photoshoot (works for everyone)

    - picnic, hiking, trip outside home

    - your daily routine (morning breakfast cooking together, or groceries, or getting ready to bed, bedtime stories, game nights, your normal pick up/drop off moment)

    - your special occasion

    - visit the lake with a swim

    - visit at the playground

    - dancing, blowing some soap bubbles, painting each other faces

    - sport activity (with preparation and ending of the match)

    - walk into the city and go for a coffee break together

    - trying something for the first time - SUP, rollerblades, skating,

  • Here there are no rules! Be comfortable or not if that is a part of the moment.

  • The best place is your place. Your home, your city, your playgrounds.

    But in Vianen we have a beautiful lake we can make daily trips to, we have over 650 years old city center, we have quite nice playgrounds, we have even a bit of forest! We can plan a great photoshoot here also.

  • Is it a choice for everyone as long as they want to less pose and more focus on the moment itself.

  • We will first start with your idea for the photoshoot. Then we will plan the date and location. When that is settled I will send you a questionnaire with questions about your expectations, needs, wants, and don'ts.

    You will also receive the contract to sign.

    Big day! First few minutes of our time together we will chat, get to know each other get used to each other more.

    Then the day will begin.

    I will be following you around, climbing where I can, lying on the floor, and hiding behind trees.

    I will become part of your group for that moment. So this time together is not so awkward.

    Sometimes I will ask you to wait for a moment - if I want to run before you. But more than that I will not be giving you instructions etc.

    After we will say our goodbyes, I will come back home. Upload all pictures and secure them in two different places.

    I will start my selection, there will be a lot of frames to go through.

    Within two weeks you will receive your gallery where you can choose pictures that you love the most and which will be going to the photobook.
