Wedding Photograhy - Trouwfotografie
Hey guys! I'm so happy to see you visiting my page. Congratulations on your engagement. I feel honored every time a couple writes an inquiry, so all the information is ready on the web. The next step is to start connecting. This is how I can help you make the process easier for you. Weddings are about connection, getting together, and making both families a family. This goes beyond the wedding day.
Follow your heart and make this your wedding. Meet your vendors, build a rapport with them, and unite them as a team working for you. Ultimately, your memories are what truly matter, and I'm thrilled to be the one capturing them. Let's have a chat, over a cup of coffee, even if it's virtual. We'll discuss you, me, the wedding, our pets & plants, our drinks, and how you envision your memories.
Here, I share all the information for your Wedding Event and my Frequently Asked Questions. You can always schedule a 30-minute consultation; I'm happy to connect and talk more about your wedding.
See you soon!
Joa
Let me know what you dream of, and let's make it a reality. Which memories of the process would you like to include? Are you thinking of traveling together for your elopement wedding overseas? Are you having a Gemeente wedding in Amsterdam or the Netherlands, and do you want beautiful images of the surroundings?
The first step is understanding your needs to create a custom-tailored proposal for you. Weddings in Amsterdam last a minimum of 2 hours and in the Netherlands from 4 hours.

Essentials
All wedding packages include five (05) important things:
- A questionnaire to know what you like and what you love. We need to get to know each other as we spend time together.
- Open communication through WhatsApp during the process. Callings must be booked in advance.
- Exclusivity on the day of your wedding for packages from 6 hours.
- Fast Delivery. My usual Delivery is up to 30 days. I deliver the complete gallery at once with no exceptions.
What does your photographer need to know?
- Your wedding day and city. I am available to travel within Europe and would love to include travel fees when I show you my collections. Outside The Netherlands, the daily fee applies, and we can photograph up to 10 hours, creating a complete documentary of your trip, not only your wedding.
- You can easily book my service per hour in Amsterdam if you require up to 2 hours of service. If your event is outside Amsterdam, transport fees will apply. Please feel free to ask for more details.
- When connecting, email me so we can comfortably have all the initial information and schedule a cal if necessary.
What are the deliverables?
I capture photo documentaries around wedding events: the connection, your important persons, the road to the wedding day, and the details with human connection. I go with the flow and follow you along the way. I describe your day, and that goes beyond the wedding event. It's more about the connection, your family, and getting together for an important day in your life.
I wonder you want to know what you are going to receive. You can add more things, but here is the minimum included on my weddings.
- Time, Talent, & Moment-driven approach of this wedding photographer
- Online Gallery with personally edited images on JPG.
- All pictures have personal usage and printing rights.
- Delivery before the first month anniversary in all cases.
What else?
I find engagement sessions truly special. These sessions are centered on activities that are important to you and that you want to remember during this time. We can go over the process during our meet-and-greet.
Since 2024, I have also been offering content creation services for weddings. This is a short video form exclusive. As a wedding photographer, I know how to avoid overlapping the photographer's or videographer's work, so the video is exclusively made with iPhone and DJI Osmo Pocket. Also, for this option, I will be dressed as a guest and not a crew member. You can ask for more information through the Contact Form specifying Wedding Content Creation.
Wedding books - Custom art from your wedding pictures?
Do you already have your pictures and want to custom-design a wedding book? Send us a message to discuss your options.

Frequently Asked Questions
WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED? DO YOU CHARGE A TRAVEL FEE FOR WEDDINGS NOT IN YOUR LOCATION?
I am located in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. My travel fees are flat, covering all my basic expenses in a different city. Please add the city while inquiring. Your quote will include the travel fees. The service is only available in Europe.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN BUSINESS? HOW MANY WEDDINGS HAVE YOU PHOTOGRAPHED AS THE MAIN PHOTOGRAPHER?
I've been in business as the main wedding photographer since 2012 and photographed hundreds of weddings.
I work alone or with a light assistant.
DESCRIBE YOUR "STYLE" OF PHOTOGRAPHY.
I do photo documentaries around wedding events: the connection, your essential persons, the road to the wedding day, and the details. I describe your day, and that goes beyond the wedding event.
If you travel to your wedding destination, the travel part is also important in telling your story.
This is my moment-driven-approach
WHAT'S THE TYPICAL WEDDING COVERAGE PACKAGE THAT YOU OFFER? WHAT IS THE PRICE?
The usual packages for a Gemeente wedding include the ceremony, photos in the city, toast, and cake.
A full-day wedding is up to 10 consecutive hours.
Every package depends on the moments you would like to include in your visual memory of the day.
DO YOU HAVE A STUDIO WHERE WE CAN MEET? DO YOU USE SKYPE?
We can meet online through Whatsapp (the best way to connect), Google Meet or Zoom.
If you are in Amsterdam, we are only a bike ride away, and I'm always open for a coffee to discuss your wedding/elopement wishes.
The fastest way to connect is through Instagram. You can also see the Behind-the-Scenes of of my daily photography adventures.
WHAT ARE YOUR PROFESSIONAL DEGREES, CREDENTIALS, AFFILIATIONS? HAVE YOU TAKEN ANY RECENT EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS OR CLASSES?
I participated in the Foundry Photojournalism Workshop in Guatemala (2014) and had an incredible experience at the Foundation Workshop in Mexico, which is one of the leading education programs for wedding photographers who take a moment-driven approach.
I was nominated for Revelation Photographer of the Year (2016) and International Photographer of the Year (2017) in the Gold Lens Awards.
HOW I AM GOING TO RECEIVE MY IMAGES AND HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE THIS PROCESS?
My standard wedding delivery timeline is up to 30 days at the latest.
If you need your pictures faster, there is an Add-on for Fast Delivery. Then, we can make it happen within five business days (Monday to Friday).
DO WE SIGN A CONTRACT? HOW DO WE PAY?
We sent a quote to your email, which we need to agree on in our online system. Then, we send the online agreement for e-signing. If you have any questions, feel free to send them to me.
As we prefer to cover small weddings, the minimum booking fee is €590. The remaining amount will be scheduled for a second invoice to be paid two weeks before the wedding date.
Overseas weddings & Elopements are booked with 50% as the booking fee covers travel expenses.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU'D LIKE TO SHARE ABOUT YOURSELF?
I love coffee (flat white), and my cat's name is Gatito. So happy to meet over coffee or a beer.
To know more about my daily life, you can see my Behind the Scenes on Instagram stories.
The best advice I can give you, no matter who you choose as your wedding photographer, is to look for the one you might get along with. We will spend a day together (maybe more), and sometimes you will give me your phone (for real! this happened!). So, if you have the chance, meet your photographer in person.
Welcome to my world! And happy to connect with you. I am everyday sharing information on Instagram, which is my preferred platform. You can always DM me to say Hi. In fact, I ask you to do so. Let's talk about how my photography can help you keep those moments in time and send your message through images. If you don't find your desired package here, send me a DM, let's create one for you together :)
