Fotografie By Daf

As a specialist in family photography in Alkmaar and North Holland, Fotografie By Daf captures loving, authentic family moments with a warm, documentary-style approach. My work is all about authenticity: no stiff poses, but relaxed moments that arise when you can be yourselves. As a mother of two young children, I know how to bring calm and patience to a photoshoot — this translates into natural, meaningful images. What sets me apart is my soft, spontaneous style. Whether we shoot on the beach at sunset, in the dunes, in a daylight studio or simply in your home, I work with natural light and give subtle, playful prompts so children can move and be themselves. That approach produces honest children’s portraits and sincere family photos — moments of connection, laughter and small intimate gestures that later turn out to be the most precious. I place great value on collaboration and preparation. Before the session I help you think through location, clothing and styling so the final result becomes a cohesive whole. For families who appreciate it, there is access to a client closet and practical tips on colors and outfits. During the shoot I create a relaxed atmosphere where everyone has space: children can play, parents can respond, and I capture the spontaneous interactions. This results in a pleasant experience and photos full of emotion and atmosphere. In addition to family sessions, I focus on children’s photography and newborn moments within a lifestyle approach — always from the same warm and patient perspective. My goal is that after the session you not only have beautiful images, but also a pleasant memory of the photographing process itself.
