Femkeruisfotografie

As a specialist in family photography based in Assendelft, Femke Ruis Photography captures the small and big moments you want to keep forever. My style is pure, spontaneous and relaxed: no forced poses, but attention to real interaction, gentle emotions and those natural moments between parents and children. I prefer to work with natural light and intentionally avoid a studio; outdoors or in your home there is space to move, play and connect. What sets me apart is my calm, personal approach. As a mother I understand how unpredictable children can be and how much patience a shoot sometimes requires. That creates a relaxed atmosphere in which kids can be themselves — and that yields the most beautiful children’s portraits and family photos. For families with newborns I combine that same loving attention with calm and care so even the tiniest little ones are photographed safely and comfortably. Working with you is warm and personal. I start with a short introductory call to discuss your wishes and favorite locations. On the day of the shoot I focus on fostering connection and play: through small prompts, little games or simply talking together the most honest images often emerge. Light and timing matter to me; when possible I plan sessions around the golden hour for that soft, warm glow — but a cozy at-home session can be just as striking and intimate. Photography is more than a profession to me; it’s a way to create tangible memories. After years working in healthcare I decided to follow my passion for photography wholeheartedly and devote myself to families with heart and soul. You’ll see that in my patience, eye for detail and the desire to capture authentic moments you’ll want to relive again and again. Are you looking for a photographer in Assendelft who specialises in family photography, children’s portraits and tender newborn images, working in a warm, natural style? I’d love to meet you and help make your memories tangible. Warmly, Femke
