Ingeborg + Erwin | Barcelona Love Session

The date of our love session with Ingeborg and Erwin almost coincided with their 10 year anniversary together! 10 YEARS! I know, looking at these two it’s hard to believe they’ve been together for so long, but it was lovely to see how gushy and cuddly they were all the way even after so much time.

I met the two Dutchies on my beach boot camp class and let me tell you… they are hard core!!!! :) It’s always such a treat meeting people from my class in the “real word” not covered in sweat and sand (remember our trainer Andy?)! Talking about Dutchies it was evident that they would bring their bikes and I made a small happy dance when I saw Dinges, their adorable puppy in a flower basket on Inge’s bike! We wanted to have a modern take on Barceloneta, my hood, the beach and display its surroundings in a more modern light. I could not be happier with how these images turned out and I have to send lots of love to Inge + Erwin for going the extra mile and of course Dinges for behaving so well! More shoots with puppies please!!!!! :)

Andy + Nikki | Barcelona Love Session

Having a video on my website has been a big differentiator for me in the European wedding photography circles in the last year and a half. I´ve received numerous comments from brides how they felt like they knew me after watching my short and silly introduction and how it has propelled their decision to book me for their big day. With that said, a loooot has happened since I shot  that video and I feel like it does not 100% reflect who I am anymore, so I teamed up with One Day One Song (an awesome Barcelona based wedding video company) to create a new mini promo for my website. It will be a more adult, clean, Barcelona version of me and I just CANNOT wait to see the final result!!!

I wanted to incorporate a love session in the video so I asked my friend (and fitness trainer!!! :) ) Andy and his gorgeous wife Nikki to model for me for a mini-beach shoot on Barceloneta, the place that means so much to me. I am really curious to see this segment of the video as I totally got lost in photographer mode while we were shooting and I´ll probably look like one hot mess but oh well… just keepin´it real y´all! ;)

Andy and Nikki is one of those couples that make you go awwwwwwwww… they´ve been together for over 14 years and are the proud parents of two beautiful little girls. (who would think right???) Still, after so much time they seem like they are just at the cuddle cutesy I-can´t-keep-my-hands-off-you stage of their relationship and it´s inspiring and heart warming to see such love to say the least!

Thank you guys for being awesome and rockin´our shoot! I hope you´ll love your images as much as I do!

Nicholas + Marina | Engagement Session in Barcelona

Miguel Varona has been one of my favorite Spanish wedding photographers for a while now (it’s actually a very funny story how we met that I’ll have to tell you one day! ;) ), so when I heard that he is coming to Barcelona to do a workshop on Fine Art Wedding photography I knew I just had to be there to finally meet him! We spent 2 jam packed days with Miguel, Carles and the other participants learning about film photography, touching and feeling some of my dream cameras, printing on lux papers and on the second day, shooting an engagement session.

When Nicholas and Marina showed up at the MACBA (Museum of Arts), our location for the shoot my jaw literally dropped. Rarely do I come across a couple with such incredible style! They did not only look the part but played it as well. Perfectly cool, composed and such fun to photograph! Thank you Nicholas & Marina for not getting scared of the hoard of photographers running after you!!! ;) You ROCKED!!!

Gigantic virtual hugs to my fellow attendees, it was so much fun and inspiration to meet you all and thank you Miguel and Carles for an incredible two days…. I’m convinced…. I have to start saving my pennies for a proper medium format film camera! ;)


Anniversary Session in the Guell Parc Barcelona | Susie + Ricsi

It’s always so funny to meet clients who have been following along my journey for years, I feel like they know everything about me while I hardly know anything about them! When Susie and Ricsi decided to celebrate their 7 year anniversary together in Barcelona, Susie turned our one sided relationship into a conversation and long story short in a few weeks we were frolicking around the Parc Guell taking anniversary pictures for them! Thank you guys for letting me capture a slice of your vacation in this awesome city of mine! Hope to see you again soon! ;)

Engagement Session in Paris | Adam & Monika

A few months ago I received an enthusiastic email from Adam, explaining that he is about to propose to his girlfriend Monika and he would love to surprise her with an ad hoc engagement session while they would be vacationing in Paris. Excited is not the right word to describe how I felt, I was awwwwwwwwwing at my screen for minutes before I could formulate a proper response. My “proper” response was along the lines of YOU ARE THE BEST BOYFRIEND EVEEEEEEEER… etc. let’s just say lots of capital letters and lots of exclamation marks! ;)

November quickly came and I finally met these two in person in a very very chilly afternoon in Paris (but at least it was not raining like on my previous two Parisienne engagement sessions… see here and here). After spending the whole afternoon and a fun filled evening together I can confirm what I’ve suspected… Adam IS the best boyfriend ever and their love with Monika is crazy, passionate and oh so right!

I’m beyond thrilled to have met you two and I wish you nothing but the best of the best, exciting adventures, a life full of travel and happiness together!
