Sanne van Es Fotografie

As a family photographer based in Bergschenhoek, Sanne van Es lovingly captures the small and big moments you’ll want to relive again and again. Her approach is warm, calm and informal: she offers subtle guidance, creates a relaxed atmosphere and leaves room for play and spontaneity. The result is photos that feel real — not posed, but pure and recognisable. Sanne primarily works with natural daylight and prefers locations that suit your family: dunes, forest or a bright indoor space where children can move freely. She favors the soft light of sunrise or sunset (the golden hour), but adapts flexibly to ensure the session is comfortable for everyone, including the very young. What sets Sanne apart is her ability to put children at ease. Her calm and friendly manner — partly shaped by her experience as a teacher — helps even shy or energetic children relax. She happily involves siblings in the session and loves capturing details: tiny hands, mischievous glances and the moments between parents and children that later prove most precious. Sanne prepares the shoot together with you: location suggestions, styling tips and practical advice so you can head into the day with confidence. During the session she keeps things light — walking, singing a song or simply playing together — and photographs genuine interactions as they happen. After the shoot you will receive carefully edited images in her characteristic style: warm tones with attention to atmosphere and emotion. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed family photo reportage in Bergschenhoek, an outdoor walk with the kids or an intimate moment at home, Sanne positions herself as a specialist in family photography. Her goal is simple: to document your story as it was, with love, character and real emotion.
