Carina Calis Fotografie

I’m Carina — a dedicated family photographer from Naarden with a passion for candid images that truly move you. My work revolves around one thing: capturing the honest story of your family. No stiff poses or forced smiles, but colorful, genuine photos in which I work as unobtrusively as possible. The result is a collection of images you’ll return to with emotion and a warm smile. Why choose me as your family photographer in Naarden? Because I work from attention and experience. As a mother and former graphic designer I understand how important both image and feeling are. My approach is personal and practical: I put you at ease, offer clear preparation tips (clothing, locations, how to include your children in the session) and create a relaxed atmosphere where real moments can unfold. My curiosity and sometimes chaotic energy (hello ADHD!) actually help me switch quickly and notice unexpected details — that small gesture, a mischievous grin, or a tender glance. What sets my style apart? I combine documentary-style photography with a colorful edit that stays true to your day. I look for light and emotion, not artificial poses. Whether it’s a short family shoot, a newborn session, or an extended Day-in-the-Life reportage, I deliver images that feel like reliving the moment. How do I work with families? The photoshoot is a collaboration: we meet beforehand, align practical details, and during the session I give space for play and connection. I photograph a lot outdoors in the Gooi and around Naarden, but I also love coming to your home for an intimate lifestyle reportage. After the shoot I carefully select and edit each image so you receive a consistent, lovingly curated series. With my design background I can also advise on albums and wall presentations — tangible keepsakes that last for years. Memories of family life become precious sooner than you think. I consider it a privilege to preserve those moments — for now and for later. Can you already picture yourself paging through an album full of real, colorful family photos? Let’s meet and see what I can create for you. Book or request more information via fotoshoot-gezin.online or contact me for a no-obligation conversation.
