DoDiLa Foto's

As a specialist in family photography, at DoDiLa Foto's in Oosterhout I capture your family story with sensitivity and care. My work focuses on authenticity: not polished or forced, but those spontaneous glances, genuine smiles and small unguarded moments that turn out to be so precious later on. Whether it’s a family shoot in nature, a newborn or baby series, children’s portraits or photos of a baptism, communion or birthday — my focus is always the family as the connecting core. My approach is calm and personal. I take my time, don’t make too many demands and respond to what’s happening in the moment. Children often respond best when they are allowed to play or are given a small task; sometimes a joke or a playful challenge brings out that natural smile. Pets, grandparents and varied family compositions are welcome: I photograph with an eye for every dynamic so that when you look back you’ll recognise exactly the moments that matter to you. Style and experience are central. I combine colorful and black-and-white images and I love working in locations where you feel comfortable — in the woods, on the beach or any other place that has meaning. Technically I deliver high-resolution, quality images; artistically I aim for timeless photographs that continue to speak through the years. My images have a warm, natural signature with room for spontaneity and emotion. Collaboration matters to me: I listen to your wishes, give personal attention during the shoot and create a relaxed atmosphere. Many families choose recurring sessions to document growth and change — I enjoy this because it allows me to build a bond and become part of a family’s visual story. Do you live in or around Oosterhout and are you looking for an experienced family photographer who makes relaxed, loving and honest family photos? Get in touch — I’m happy to advise on location, style and how to shape the session so we create beautiful, lasting memories together. Warmly, Ilona from DoDiLa Foto's.
