Finding someone who understands my vision makes all the difference.

Service: I needed high-quality photos of myself for my website
Photography has always been a challenge for me as I'm usually uncomfortable in front of the camera. However, Lucie made the experience so natural and enjoyable that we ended up chatting and becoming friends. Her photos are the ones I love and use the most because they capture authenticity and quality beautifully.

Service: Personal and business photo shoot
I recently had the pleasure of working with Stephanie van der Wiel for a personal and business photo shoot while on holiday in Ericeira, Portugal. From the start, Stephanie's professionalism shone through; she had scouted all the locations beforehand, ensuring our time was used efficiently. Her warm personality made me feel instantly beautiful and at ease - it was like being with a friend who just happens to take stunning photos. Her work truly speaks for itself. As someone who has never done a photoshoot before, especially now in my 40s, I am beyond thrilled with how the pictures turned out. The quality is top-notch; it's clear why her portfolio is featured in magazines and documentaries. Plus, Stephanie's quick editing turnaround gave me these cherished images without a long wait. This experience was more than just a photoshoot; it felt like an affirmation of beauty and confidence that I will always hold dear. Stephanie is not only an incredibly talented photographer but also an amazing human being. Without hesitation, I would recommend her to anyone looking for high-quality photography – she has my utmost respect and gratitude for this unforgettable experience.
