Annelies & Ben were my voluntary test couple for an eSession a while ago and having spent some time together is just pure gold. It means that when I ring the doorbell in the morning you can feel more like a friend as opposed to being “the photographer”. Everybody is that much more relaxed.
Annelies [...]
If only we would have had more sun this summer, I would have found about DOKstrand sooner.
E+B, you guys totally rocked it! And thank you Mr. Icebear!
To prep Ben & Annelies for their big day and to take my X100 a spin we headed out for a walk in my neigbourhood. It’s actually a lot of fun to find some new spots and to give a new twist on some old spots. We all had great fun and I think the [...]
With the birth of our son Bent, 2011 already has been a sweet year. And while I have accepted a limited number of weddings this year I’m really looking forward to get back out there to capture me some lovely weddings. But before I do that I’m gonna release some unblogged 2010 weddings on you.
We’ll [...]
As I was finishing up on my last wedding album of 2010 I came across a series of images with a story to them that I wanted to share. And since the full wedding posts will probably only show up on the blog next month, I thought: lets do a quickie!
It’s always easier with natural [...]
The wedding season is nearly over now. My goal was to get all slideshows out to my couples first and now that I’ve done that I can share some more weddings with you on this blog!
The wedding of Henk & Marjolijn was a home game for me: Ghent! There were really lots of things [...]
Ik was net geland in Rome toen ik telefoon kreeg van Marleen, Marleen klonk zooooo superenthousiast dat je eigenlijk op dat moment al weet: dit wordt een knaller. Nog gelukkiger was ze toen ik vertelde nog vrij te zijn op 19 juni. De eerste echte kennismaking kwam er niet veel later en kon ook wel [...]
Hanne & Maarten will be closing my 2010 wedding season with a late November wedding. For their eSession they wanted things a bit sunnier and they had a very clear idea on where they wanted it: The abandoned Dadipark playground in Dadizele. A real fun place for a photographer, the weather was on our [...]
After the first look and right before we left for city hall I just asked the couple to cross the street with me for a two minute mini-shoot. Used the sun to get me some flare.
I’m always very happy as a child when a couple chooses one of my pictures for their post-wedding thank you card. But I’m even more ecstatic when they don’t choose a traditional picture but rather a picture that defines “me” and “my style”. This picture was shot landscape but received a square crop in [...]
It seems that I’m on a blogpost rampage last couple of weeks. But I’m really excited about a couple of super fun eSession results I have to show you. Let us start with Bert & Mel!
The initial plan for a location for Bert & Mel was to use the city of Kortrijk as a [...]
As I mentioned before, I don’t like a traditional wedding but I love all traditional moments of that wedding. For me a wedding is about love & romance. One of the things that spontaneously pop into mind is the phrase “I pronounce you man & wife, you may kiss the bride“. So this one is [...]
Neen, niet mijn voorbereiding, die heb je als fotograaf hopelijk lang voor de trouwdag reeds genomen (en grondig ook!). Ik heb het over de voorbereiding van de bruid. Ikzelf vind het altijd weer spannend om s’ochtends vroeg bij de bruid aan te komen en eigenlijk niet te goed weten wat je mag verwachten. Elke [...]
Terwijl het trouwseizoen ondertussen terug op volle toeren begint te draaien heb ik nog enkele eSessions niet geblogd.
Marleen & Bart belden me voor het eerst op toen ik in Rome was, eigenlijk was ik niet beschikbaar op hun trouwdag maar wegens omstandigheden kwam hun datum opnieuw vrij. Van bij het eerste telefoontje leek het wel [...]
Fanny & Bart waren het eerste koppeltje die me vorig jaar gevraagd hadden om hun fotograaf te zijn. We hadden elkaar reeds enkele weken terug gezien voor de communiefoto’s van Femke, maar die reportage hebben jullie nog tegoed.
Na veel heen en weer bellen om een perfecte dag te vinden spraken we af aan hun [...]
