Noëlle Averdijk Fotografie

As a family photographer based in Oldenzaal and working across Twente, I’m Noëlle and I love capturing the connection between people. My approach focuses on purity and emotion: no forced poses, but moments that truly feel real. Whether it’s a spontaneous family shoot in the golden evening light, intimate newborn images at home, or loving portraits of children in my studio — I look for the photograph that brings you back to that feeling. My journey as a photographer started in nature and found its heart when I photographed my own daughter and realised how precious those images are. Since then I’ve worked with the same attention to light, composition and atmosphere, always with a human starting point: the mother bond, the little recognisable details and the unguarded moments between you. That gives my style a warm, pure and emotional quality — exactly what many families are looking for. How do I work? I value personal contact and preparation. Before the session we discuss your wishes and together choose a comfortable location or studio setup. After booking you’ll receive a location guide and styling tips; in the studio you can also use the client closet so you don’t need to worry about outfits. During the shoot I create a relaxed atmosphere: I give gentle prompts, leave room for play and quiet moments, and I take my time — especially with newborns and young children. This is how honest, recognisable images emerge. Choosing me means choosing more than photographs: you choose someone who will capture your story with heart and care. I work from Oldenzaal, photograph widely across Twente and am happy to welcome you to my studio or come to your home. My focus is on family photography, newborn, baby and children's photography, and special family moments like baptisms, communions or birthdays. Would you like images that move you and that you’ll look back on with a smile? Send me a message — I’m happy to think along with you and help you feel comfortable in front of the camera.
