This approach results in natural family photos and warm children’s portraits that truly reflect who you are. What makes the method special is the combination of a minimalist aesthetic and a warm, personal working style. Gabriëlla offers a "white & pure" or "black & elegant" studio look that enhances the emotion and character of your family. No filters, no exaggerated editing—only images that show who you really are. Her work has received international recognition and multiple photography awards, but the greatest compliment remains: “This is exactly my child, as he or she really is.” The collaboration process is clear and involved. You’ll have personal contact beforehand to discuss wishes and expectations. During the shoot Gabriëlla takes all the time needed so children feel at ease and spontaneous moments can arise. After the session there is a personal ordering appointment where you choose the finest images together and receive advice on photo products that fit your interior. This ensures the photos don’t just sit on a USB drive, but get a place of honor in your home. Puur Kinderfotografie is based in Assendelft, near Zaanstad, and welcomes families from across North Holland. Whether you want a family shoot, a children’s portrait or a maternity image within the family context, Gabriëlla offers a calm, loving approach and photographs that truly move you.
