Photoshoot Report | Portrait portfolio shoots

08/03/2022 | Reageer

Hi everyone! It was time for another nice portfolio post. I am now already at 2 agencies and I am going to register with the Chamber of Commerce to be able to do more as a freelancer. It has been a bit quieter in terms of shoots lately because winter is the most quiet period in terms of shoots. The bridal season will start again in spring, so I have quite a few things planned for March and April as well. The upcoming shoots are not collaborations / portfolio shoots, but assignments again. Hopefully it will all continue!

Last January I did a very cool portfolio shoot with flying colleague Ferdy Francis in his studio in Houten. This was a shoot as a ‘collab’ and for the portfolio of both. Ferdy has a variety of content and is, in my opinion, a creative all-rounder when it comes to photography. A lot of the photos are, besides in his studio, taken in an empty club with a lot of mirrors around me. Super cool idea and cool setup too! I have received a lot of photos, but in this post you can see my favorites. I decided to do my own make-up in both shoots and to go for a more ‘natural’ look. The shoot was super fun and pretty close from my home too.

Hi allemaal! Het was weer tijd voor een leuke portfolio post. Inmiddels zit ik al bij 2 bureaus en ga ik mij inschrijven bij KVK om ook meer te kunnen als freelancer. Het is de afgelopen tijd wat rustiger geweest qua shoots omdat dat de winter de meest rustige periode is qua shoots. A.s lente begint het bruidsseizoen weer, dus ik heb ook behoorlijk wat op de planning staan voor maart en april. De a.s shoots betreffen geen samenwerkingen/portfolioshoots, maar weer opdrachten. Hopelijk gaat het allemaal door! Zin in in ieder geval.

Afgelopen Januari heb ik een hele toffe portfolio shoot gedaan met vliegende collega Ferdy Francis in zijn studio in Houten. Dit was een shoot als ‘collab’ en voor het portfolio van beide. Ferdy heeft een variatie aan content en is als het ware in mijn mening een creatieve alleskunner als het aankomt op fotografie. Een groot deel van de foto’s zijn naast de studio ruimte, gemaakt in een lege club met een hoop spiegels om me heen. Super gaaf idee en gave opzet ook! Ik heb een hoop foto’s mogen ontvangen, maar in deze post zie je mijn favorieten. Ik besloot in beide shoots mijn eigen make-up te verzorgen en een wat ‘naturellere’ look te kiezen. De shoot was super leuk en ook vrij dichtbij.

Last January I also did a nice portfolio shoot at Voorde camera – Shelena van der Voorde at home. We already knew each other from an incredibly nice portfolio shoot by a makeup artist in 2020, when I had just become a Miss World Netherlands finalist. We had a nice long chat and laughed a lot with this shoot. Shelena is also very nice to deal with and knows how to put you at ease. We wanted to try a slightly more artistic theme and something different from my normal photos. This also turned out very cool during the shoot with Ferdy.
Afgelopen Januari heb ik ook een mooie portfolio shoot thuis bij Voorde camera – Shelena van der Voorde gedaan. We kenden elkaar al van een onwijs leuke portfolio shoot van een visagiste in 2020, toen ik net Miss World Nederland finaliste was geworden. We hebben gezellig lang gekletst en veel gelachen met deze shoot. Shelena is óók onwijs fijn in omgang en weet je erg op je gemak te stellen. We wilden een wat artistieker thema uitproberen en wat anders dan mijn normale foto’s. Dit is bij de shoot met Ferdy ook heel gaaf geworden.

(Scheduled post) The power of feminine dressing - I don’t even own a pair of denim jeans. Not because I think there’s anything wrong with them, but because ultra-feminine is simply who I am and I don’t feel comfortable in them.
And I’m done toning it down to fit in.

When I said the world is dressing more masculine,
I got backlash.
But I stand by what I feel and see.
And I still choose grace, softness, and style with intention,
every single day.

Feminine dressing isn’t outdated.
It’s timeless. It’s powerful.
It just means you honour beauty, tradition, elegance, and your own feminine energy.

All dresses in this video are from my dress partner @theprettydress 🤍

After a challenging period last year, that I won’t share the details of openly - I got back on track again since the end of last year ✈️ I am very proud of myself for finding my spark and power back again after overcoming things I never thought would happen to me, things you would only see in movies, stories I could genuinely write a book about. 

This year has taught me once again how incredibly much inner strength I have, that I can only be bent, not broken.

I hope my story, and the stories I have shared with the world and media over the years, will keep inspiring people to stand in their own authenticity and follow their dreams. You are stronger than you think. 

Some pictures of happy moments since I am back in the sky again (the first pic is older though)

I’m turning 29 soon, and I’m not scared to admit the things we’re often told to hide.
Not everything in my life looks like a highlight. Not everything feels “on track.”
At this age, I thought I’d be married. With a dream job. A home. Maybe even a baby on the way. 

But life had other plans and I embrace my life for what it is, without shame for who I am. 

✨ I’m still chasing my dreams — even when they feel far.
🌍 I hope to grow my career online so I can live and work freely.
💔 I wonder if real love still exists in this generation, or if we’re all just scared. I believe love is real from myself to a man.
💸 I’d rather make nothing than sell my body for attention and some easy money.
📉 My weight keeps fluctuating, no matter how healthy I try to live.
🏡 I still live with my parents — and I never thought I’d say that at 28. 
☕ I drink too much coffee. I overthink. I overfeel.
But I also hope. I try. I create.

And I’m learning:
You don’t have to be “on time” to be whole.
You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to be proud of how far you’ve come.

So no, I’m not scared of turning 29.
I’m scared of pretending I’m someone I’m not.

This is my version. This is real.
And maybe that’s exactly what someone out there needed to hear today.

The power of vulnerability and never ashamed of who I am. There is nothing I hide of myself.

I’m turning 29 soon, and I’m not scared to admit the things we’re often told to hide. Not everything in my life looks like a highlight. Not everything feels “on track.” At this age, I thought I’d be married. With a dream job. A home. Maybe even a baby on the way. But life had other plans and I embrace my life for what it is, without shame for who I am. ✨ I’m still chasing my dreams — even when they feel far. 🌍 I hope to grow my career online so I can live and work freely. 💔 I wonder if real love still exists in this generation, or if we’re all just scared. I believe love is real from myself to a man. 💸 I’d rather make nothing than sell my body for attention and some easy money. 📉 My weight keeps fluctuating, no matter how healthy I try to live. 🏡 I still live with my parents — and I never thought I’d say that at 28. ☕ I drink too much coffee. I overthink. I overfeel. But I also hope. I try. I create. And I’m learning: You don’t have to be “on time” to be whole. You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful. You don’t have to have it all figured out to be proud of how far you’ve come. So no, I’m not scared of turning 29. I’m scared of pretending I’m someone I’m not. This is my version. This is real. And maybe that’s exactly what someone out there needed to hear today. The power of vulnerability and never ashamed of who I am. There is nothing I hide of myself. #ThisIsMe #28AndNotScaredToAdmit #PowerInTruth #SoftButStrong . . #elegant #mexico #cenote #tulumpueblo #beautypageant #femaletravel #solofemaletravel #missgrandnetherlands #missgrandinternational #missgrand #sisterhood #tulummiamor #tulum #tulummodel #model #vulnerability

A casual walk through 80 AD 🇮🇹🏛️

My Roman empire is the real one 🏛️ Share this with somebody you want to visit Rome with. The colosseum in Rome is one of the 7 wonders of the world. I feel blessed to call this my fourth out of seven. 

🌿 Did you know? The Colosseum could hold over 50,000 spectators, and its massive retractable awning system called the velarium, was operated by Roman sailors to protect the audience from the sun. Even back then… they knew how to do luxury in style. 🏛️☀️

Come with me on a day in Rome - Italy 🇮🇹🏛️ Together with my friend @allineboff - One day vlog in one minute ⛲️ We really enjoyed our brunch at 📍@mollysgarden_roma thank you for the invitation ☕️

This was a last minute trip with Aline - as we did not plan this trip a very long time ago. As Rome is only a two hour flight for me compared to the normal 12-20 hours it takes for us to meet up, I decided to take the opportunity to visit her ✈️

Do you dream of going to Rome or have you been there? Let me know in the comments ✨

Embracing Authenticity | Defending Truth on my Miss World (Netherlands) journey in 2021, my core values and mission

Dutch version below – Hello everyone, I would like to share my truth, vision, and story with all of you, including the beliefs I stand for.
