Over the last ten years, my work has taken me to beautiful weddings in Belgium, France, Italy, Switzerland and South Africa and gave me the opportunity to work with inspiring couples in love. After I graduated in Art Direction (advertising) at C.A.D. Brussels, I knew it was time to take my skills and develop them further with photography. I quickly fell in love creating images for Instagram. Since then, I partnered with many different brands. I live in Belgium and I like to spend my free time dancing, enjoying precious moments with my family, friends and travelling the world.
My work is strongly influenced by ballet, movies, classical music, high fashion & travel.

behind
I’m a passionate photographer based in Brussels. In each photograph, I’m looking for perfection and beauty. And to me, light is everything! What I love most about my job, is to capture emotions and tell stories through images. My clients describe my imagery as romantic, elegant and light-filled. My work is strongly influenced by ballet, movies, classical music, high fashion and travel.
"It's red lipstick bold, classic to the core, romantic at heart, and effortless, button-down-shirt sexy."
I’m a photographer obsessed with light and beautiful moments.
Travel lover, I’m based in Brussels.
I specialize in elegant, timeless and romantic marriages both in Belgium and destinations around the world (here, you can discover some weddings in Italy, France and South Africa). I also do portraits, boudoir, maternity, family shootings and photograph hotels, beauty, decoration too…
I created my blog in 2014, after I graduated in advertising (Art Direction) at C.A.D. Brussels. One year later, I started wedding photos reports.
And since then, it became a real addiction.
When I'm not working, I love to go to ballet and jazz classes, salsa and bachata parties, travel the world, spend time with family and friends.

Since the beginning of my blog and Instagram in 2014, I had the opportunity to partner with hundreds of different brands, organize giveaways together, attend many press events, and had the pleasure to be invited to different press trips both in France and Italy. Also have been fortunate to see my work published in a variety of publications.

I always focus on beautiful light, emotions and natural moments. As a photographer, I help my clients to feel comfortable to capture authentic instants. Discretion is a must, even if I will direct my clients during the portrait sessions and family pictures.
Key moments of the day are as important as the little ones. From details like rings, bouquets, jewels and shoes to the first glance, ceremony, family portraits, speeches, ... It's important to me that my couples have a gallery of many different images that really represent the day.
I've always loved looking through my parents and grand parents' wedding albums. These are such precious memories for them but also for the next generations.
I always focus on beautiful light & emotions.

HOUSE OF WEDDINGS
FRANSE "FINE ART WEDDING SHOOT" IN DE VLAAMSE ARDENNEN
Het pand is een romantisch herenhuis met een botanische ingesloten tuin, waar de tijd 200 jaar heeft stilgestaan. Huis Beaucarne heeft ook een prachtige oranjerie die gebouwd is naar het voorbeeld van een Turkse tent - enig in haar soort in Europa. De druivenserre die twee verdiepen telt is letterlijk historisch te noemen, want de druiven dateren...
Daarnaast werd de fotografie verzorgd door Olivia Poncelet. Zij is gekend voor de perfectie en zachtheid van haar fotograferen.
Begin 2020 groeide het idee bij Alle Gebeure & VIVA Blooming voor een ‘fine art’ styled shoot op een unieke, niet-alledaagse locatie. Davy’s oog viel op Huis Beaucarne, gelegen in het rustige Ename in de Vlaamse Ardennen.

" Her photos are to die for. I like how soft & elegant they are. "
Laure & Jerry
Olivia made it possible to relive our wedding day trough her beautiful photographs. She puts a lot of effort and talent in her work. We love her style and working with her. We became good friends since then. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer.
" She puts a lot of effort & talent in her work "
Michaela for Notino
Elle a du talent, ses photos sont romantiques et délicates, et ses articles complétés par des photos élégantes et décentes de nos produits de beauté sont toujours un régal pour les yeux. Ses revues honnêtes sur les produits de notre offre nous font toujours plaisir.
" On ne peut que recommander Olivia "
