Portrait photography in Amsterdam

A great portrait is not just a likeness. It captures something of the essence, the soul, of the sitter and evokes a feeling that words alone can’t describe. For a portrait that brings out the best in you, you need a photographer who sees your best side – whichever side that is! Someone who lets you relax and who knows how to capture the most beautiful pose without any awkwardness, drama or stress.

✓ You would like to immortalize a moment of your life, such as a special day or your visit to Amsterdam for example, or want to make a special original gift.

✓ You are looking for a spontaneous, colorful and fun photo session with your family, a romantic shooting with your partner, some trustworthy photos for your LinkedIn profile, or a solo glamour photoshoot just for yourself.

✓ You are afraid of being too shy or uncomfortable in front of the lens, but have always wanted beautiful pictures of yourself.

You are in the right place then!

I had a great time shooting with Melanie. She's just so friendly and professional. She will keep you at ease during the photoshoot that makes the picture looks natural. There's no dull moment when working with her. Plus points is she deliver the pictures ahead of agreed time. I strongly recommend her for everyone who wants to have fun while taking great photos in the Netherlands.

I can only say: Melanie is very flexible, dedicated and perfectionistic in her work. She prepares very well and leaves almost nothing to chance.During our wedding preparations we had our first meeting. We got to know her in advance, and she helped us to improve our wedding schedule. Very nice.Several weeks before our wedding, Melanie travelled from Amsterdam to our wedding venues. Together we decided what the best location was for group photo's (in terms of daylight and group size) and for our brides couple photo's. Superb.During the wedding she was Melanie was very energetic and enthusiastic - for over eight hours straight. Her pictures are beautiful, and she even made some small videos for us.We are very happy with the 1700 photo's 🙂

Melanie recently took photos during our party, with great results. I think taking pictures of people dancing in a dark room is the hardest thing there is, but Melanie managed it. And how! All photos razor sharp, people laughing, friends dancing, well lit. Thank you very much for this lasting memory.

Professional photographer with the friendliest and kindest attitude! Melanie offered so many solutions and ideas for our proposal photoshoot and helped keep me calm as plans changed due to weather or last minute hiccups. I was able to stay in constant contact with her and everything went according to plan. Highly recommend!!

For our PR workshop of the German National Tourist Board in September 2020 (corona-proof edition) we worked together with Melanie and were more than satisfied! Melanie is very professional, the planning and communication before the event was uncomplicated and fast. She brings her own ideas, but also pays close attention to what the company wants. The results are really great - Melanie definitely has an unique way of capturing people's emotions. Thanks again for your great work and see you at our next event!
I have worked with Melanie and i strongly recommend her services. She is very responsive, highly professional and always meets expectations. If you are looking for capturing the most important moments of your life in an artistic and highly quality manner - talk to Melanie! She will make sure you get what you are looking for, even if it takes her to roll on a dusty floor so that you and your precious moments are captured in the best light
