fotografie.lianne

As a family photographer based in Staphorst, my mission is simple: to capture memories as they truly feel. I am Lianne Port — a mother of four and a trained pedagogical worker — and my experience with children is at the heart of my work. Thanks to my background in childcare, I know how to create calm, trust and fun so that children (and parents) feel free to be themselves in front of the camera. The result is spontaneous, loving images in natural tones that tell your story. Why choose fotografie.lianne? Because I specialise in family photography and children’s portraits, and I work with patience, humour and attention to small moments. I always reserve a half day for your session: no hurry, just time to play, cuddle and make memories. My style is warm and unembellished — moving away from the ‘look-at-the-camera’ approach and focusing on real interaction and genuine emotion. My approach is personal and clear. We start with a short chat to discuss your wishes and then turn the session into a relaxed moment together. During the shoot I give simple prompts and gentle guidance, but the most beautiful images often appear when everything is allowed to unfold naturally. Parents appreciate that I quickly build rapport with children; that helps create effortless portraits, sibling moments and complete family photos. Practical and service-minded, I provide an online gallery where you can comfortably select your favourite images. You’ll receive professional post-processing; my goal is for the photos to feel timeless and authentic. As a local photographer in Staphorst I work throughout the area (Meppel, Nijeveen, Hoogeveen, Zwolle and beyond) and I love creating family photography that stands the test of time. Photography is more than a job to me — it’s a way to preserve the fleeting moments of family life. Whether it’s a spontaneous afternoon in the woods, a newborn session at home or a timeless children’s portrait, I capture it with care and attention.
