Liefs Fotografie in Venlo is the specialist in family photography: warm, relaxed family photoshoots using natural light. Authentic moments and memories captured with care.
As a specialist in family photography based in Venlo, Liefs Fotografie (Emma de Brouwer) portrays your family in a loving, natural way. My focus is on family photoshoots that produce warm, honest images where you can simply be yourselves. No stiff poses — just gentle guidance and plenty of room for play, cuddles and laughter, exactly as you are. Why choose Liefs Fotografie? Because I truly care about people and love turning everyday connections into cherished memories. I prefer working with natural light and deliberately look for the best moment of the day — the golden hour — to capture that soft, atmospheric glow that makes family photos extra special. My style is warm, intimate and unforced; I capture spontaneous moments so the images later feel like looking back at a treasured memory. How I work: together we choose the best location and time, tailored to your wishes and the most flattering light. In Venlo I know several lovely photo spots, but a shoot can also take place at home — ideal for families with young children or a newborn. During the session I create a relaxed, playful atmosphere; I give short, clear directions and leave plenty of room for spontaneity. This way authentic images emerge that put your bond at the centre. Although family photography is my main specialty, I also photograph maternity, newborn and portrait work. Newborn sessions are preferably held at home so your little one can stay relaxed in a warm, familiar environment. For studio portraits — including split-face portraits and framed art pieces for the wall — I use my own studio, specially equipped for portraits and wall art. My motivation is simple: to make people happy with images that have real sentimental value. Whether it’s an intimate mother-and-child series, a playful family session in the park, or capturing quiet, moving moments at home — at Liefs Fotografie you receive personal attention, calm and professional craftsmanship. Contact me from Venlo and let’s create memories you’ll want to revisit again and again.
