The Ultimate Hack for Calmer Babies During Newborn Photo sessions

Photographing newborns can sometimes be challenging, especially when the little ones aren't quite in the mood. Recently, however, I discovered a new hack that works wonders during sessions. This tip can be a game-changer for photographers who struggle with restless babies.

Every year, I mark my birthday with a self-portrait photo session. This year was no exception, but I added a special touch by persuading my boyfriend Luc to join me in the photos. The result? A beautiful collection of photos that capture us as a couple in a moment of timeless beauty.

My Passion for Photography: How It All Began

My Passion for Photography: How It All Began
Do you all remember how my photography journey began? It all started with my two Shar-Pei dogs, Hiro and Ziva.
I constantly captured their adventures, and that's how I got into the world of photography.
I searched for tutorials on YouTube and learned about the exposure triangle in online workshops.
With my first SLR camera in hand, I signed up for various workshops.
This allowed me to apply everything I learned to Hiro and Ziva to create the most beautiful pictures.
Perfection is in my blood, and I always strive for excellence in everything I do.

You don't want any photos.

You want meaning.

A moment in your life
that deserves to be paused for a moment.

Not to decide.
Not to plan.
But to feel what this moment does to you.

That is why every session at ESSENCE OF YOU
starts with a personal discovery call.

A relaxed conversation
in which you don't need to prepare anything
or make any decisions.

Just space
for your story
and what is truly valuable to you.
