on film
your wedding
I won’t replace your main photographer & I’m not a second shooter either. Think of me as a bonus. An extra set of eyes with a different perspective.
I will focus on the bride and groom, the carefully curated decorations, the pretty details, the atmosphere & the in-between moments — the kind that makes your day truly yours.
After a decade of documenting weddings digitally, I’ve returned to the heart of photography: shooting on film.
The idea came to me when I looked through my parents’ wedding album. They didn’t have a thousand photos — but what they had was something our generation is often missing: the look, the feel, the soul of film.
As one of the rare Belgian wedding photographers specializing in medium format & 35mm film, I bring something truly unique. I offer a one-of-a-kind experience shot entirely on film.

"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.
shooting film
why I love
While editing my digital work, I’ve always been inspired by the beauty of analog photography. From the soft, dreamy tones to the delicate grain, film has a charm that digital can’t fully replicate — and that’s exactly why I now offer photo reports shot entirely on film.
The skin tones, the softness and the grain of film are way more flattering than digital. There’s no high-definition detail of every wrinkle — people often look ten years younger!
Then there’s the magic of black and white film — timeless, cinematic, and full of emotion. The texture, the contrast… it’s simply breathtaking!
There's a reason we all look at our parent's wedding images with such nostalgia
