Timeless portraits to lifetime memories.
Thanks for visiting my website! I specialize in capturing the quiet beauty of motherhood, newborn life, and family connection. My work blends soft posing with natural emotion to create imagery that feels both intentional and heartfelt. With a refined and minimalist approach, I help preserve the milestones and in-between moments that make your family’s story uniquely yours from bump to baby and beyond.
Precious moments, thoughtfully captured
At the heart of my work is a desire to preserve the beauty of connection, the love, the pure and precious moments of your growing family. I create images that are both thoughtfully composed and gently lived-in, blending posed elegance with natural emotion. I aim to give babies, mothers and families a calm, intentional space to feel seen, celebrated, and beautifully be themselves.

Hi, I'm Christine
Posed & Lifestyle Family Photographer based in The Netherlands.
Becoming a mother gave me a new lens through which to see life’s quiet beauty, deep connections, and fleeting moments – and that’s exactly what I strive to capture in every session. My style is serene, warm, and timeless, with a strong focus on details, genuine emotion, and the connection between people. I aim to create beautiful images that can be treasured forever. While I bring a consistent aesthetic to my work, I also let the mood of each session guide me, ensuring your story is told in a way that feels truly yours.
Since 2022, Christine is always there capturing our family's important milestones. From newborn shoots, cake smash sessions, birthdays and holiday family portraits. My kids feel at ease and confident being themselves whenever Christine is behind her lens. She has a lot of great ideas in terms of different concepts but also wanted to make sure that she was capturing our personalities. Whenever I look back at our albums, I would feel the emotions captured by her camera. She made sure that she captures all the best moments we are not even aware of happening. Just recently, she also did our wedding photos! We love looking at those memories over and over.
As a professional she is charming, she makes you feel comfortable, she makes you laugh, she genuinely cares about you and your day, total photography pro. Look no further – she’s the best photographer your family could ask for!

I was really impressed with how our family Christmas photoshoot turned out. Christine is very talented and was really patient, especially handling families with kids. For people like us who do not have a lot of experience being directed how to project on camera, she makes it so fun and comfortable for us so we can get the best results. I will definitely look forward to working with Christine again in the future and I highly recommend her services 👍

I've had several shoots done with Christine and she is very professional, talented, and patient. She takes her time to make sure she's got the right shots...never felt rushed or pressured when my kids don't cooperate. She did my maternity photos which were absolutely gorgeous, my son's newborn photos, our family photos, and recently we did a mini shoot with her for Christmas. I am never disappointed with the result. 💕

We had an enjoyable time and great pictures with Christine! Our family just move to NL this year and we wanted to capture some of our family moments on the park. Christine is very professional and gave us good instructions and tricks. Were very happy how our photos turned out! So happy we made a photobook right away :)

I have done the Christmas Mini Shoot with Christine last year and this year and just love her work of art. She is very professional and patient (especially with children who often don't cooperate as you might wish for) and makes her shoots memorable. It's the small details that make her setups special. She makes everyone feel welcome and comfortable from the time you arrive. The results are pictures that capture everyone's personalities and create long lasting memories💞
