Harriet

Naomi doesn't just capture beautiful images, she creates art! Her artistic images beautifully capture femininity and sensuality. She brings relaxation, attention to detail, plays with light and surroundings, and is creative. She guided me step by step through this process with mutual vulnerability and humanity, full equality, and loving guidance. Naomi is a woman who allows and embraces life's intensity, and she shares and conveys the experience. Her strength as a photographer lies exactly there. Naomi: Beautiful woman, professional; I'm grateful to you ❤️





Nadine

I wanted to capture my first pregnancy in a unique way, not the usual style, but pure, distinctive, and artistic. A beautiful memory for the future. You are a wonderful person, professional, skilled, and detail-oriented. You know exactly what you're doing and how to make someone feel comfortable, creating a relaxed atmosphere. I felt at ease, empowered, and beautiful! It's incredibly special to have photos of yourself in your most authentic form! Strong and artistic, with a beautiful use of light, a true piece of art for the wall!





Sweet words

The boudoir photoshoot takes place at your home (if possible). It's the place where you feel most comfortable and a background that suits who you are as a person. My work as a boudoir photographer is characterized by subtle sensuality and an artistic approach. It deviates from the standard boudoir photography, it's a bit more veiled, and is often described as mysterious and powerful. The most important thing is that you don't have to do anything that makes you uncomfortable.







The shoot

After the shoot

After the boudoir photoshoot, I will start working on the photos and create a comprehensive selection, each of which I carefully edit. Within 2 weeks, the photos will be ready, and you will come to my office to see your photos for the first time! Then, you choose your favorites and how you want to receive them, and I will get to work for you. From start to finish, I will guide you to ensure that you conclude this experience with the most beautiful products and a warm feeling.

I will guide you in creating a boudoir photoshoot that perfectly suits you. This way, you can already visualize how the shoot will be, be well-prepared, and make the most of the boudoir photoshoot.

Your mysterious style of photography really appealed to me, and I'm very glad I did the shoot, especially now that I'm pregnant. I felt very comfortable with you, which isn't easy when you're completely naked. What I also appreciated was that we had a chat before we started working. That made the photoshoot less uncomfortable.





Justine

“Na de shoot heb ik een besef van mezelf, dat ik tevreden mag zijn over mezelf en niet altijd hoef te twijfelen. En dankjewel voor de aftersales en hulp bij het zoeken van het juiste product, dat vond ik heel fijn!”

“The artistic sessions”

Shooting on location is fantastic! Finding a beautiful place to create art, engaging creatively with the environment, going beyond what you could achieve in your own home. Shooting on location requires courage and boldness, but at the same time, it yields beautiful and unique images.

Because shooting on location can be both exciting and costly, I book an entire location for exclusive use four times a year. This way, the chance of encountering other people is minimal, and we're free to create the work we want. I also cover the costs of location rental by scheduling a series of shoots in succession.

This shoot helped me get closer to myself during a difficult period when I felt a bit lost. I overcame something within myself, and I truly did it for myself. So, if you're struggling with insecurities or anything, go for it! Because Naomi captures something in you that you might not see clearly yourself!





Fay

“I can’t express how thankful and full of energy I was after you left. I think I kept smiling for a good hour, thinking of how amazing and easy it felt standing in front of a camera with you behind it. Thank you so much for making it so effortless and truly loved our time together.”

Investement

Tell me about your wishes and ideas, and together we will design the perfectly fitting boudoir photoshoot. I always work based on prints because I believe that photos truly hold value when they are printed. A shoot, including products, starts at 750 euros. In the end, you decide which photos to

 purchase and which products to buy (and how much you want to invest).

Awards & Publications

The relationship with our body is a very special one. We experience it every day. When we get goosebumps or a warm glow of happiness. We can deeply love our bodies and sometimes speak very negatively about them. Whatever phase you're in with your body, every body deserves to be honored. To be acknowledged. Because in every phase of life you're in, your body tells a story about you.
Who you are, what you stand for. What you've experienced or what's coming your way soon. Together, we pause time. We create. Boudoir photography is more than a portrait session. It's an experience. A moment where we pause time together and create art. Art that you can place in your home, to be reminded of this beautiful moment every time you see it.











Create a tangible memory for life!

Every boudoir photoshoot and every product starts with a personal introduction.





Our relationship with our bodies is a very special one. We experience it every day. Whether it's feeling goosebumps or a warm glow of happiness, we can deeply love our bodies, but we can also sometimes speak very negatively about them. And that's what I want to change as a boudoir photographer.

In whichever phase you are with your body, every body deserves to be honored. To pause and reflect upon. Because in every life stage you find yourself in, your body tells a story about you. Who you are, what you stand for. What you've been through or what lies ahead. This all comes together in my boudoir photoshoots.





Together, we freeze time. We create. Boudoir photoshoots are more than just a portrait session. It's an experience. A boudoir photoshoot is a moment when we pause time together and create art. Art that you can place in your home, to be reminded of this beautiful boudoir photoshoot each time.











It all starts with a chill conversation to get to know each other! 

Who are you?

Who am I?

I am Naomi, 39 years old, and I have been a professional photographer specializing in boudoir photoshoots for the past 12 years. I have had a love for photography throughout my life. In my earlier days, I would spend hours in the attic, flipping through old albums and completely lose myself in them. I worked as a counselor for 10 years, during which I learned that through my presence and positivity, I could help and empower others.

I find immense joy in the fact that these two significant aspects of my life converge in my work as a boudoir photographer.

You are a woman above the age of 18. In love, engaged, married, single, or pregnant. Every phase of your life deserves to be captured in a boudoir photoshoot.

If you're interested, feel free to contact me without any obligation!

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart.

I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents

Nadine

I wanted to capture a special period (my pregnancy) in an artistic and intimate way. I booked Naomi because of the positive vibe she has on Instagram, her Christian identity, and the beautiful photos she creates. The photoshoot was a very enjoyable, relaxed, and intimate moment where I felt very safe and beautiful. I'm happy with the renewed self-confidence, the stunning photos (real pieces of art!), and the conscious reflection on a special period in my life. Thank you for the beautiful moments, wonderful photos, and products!





Nathalie

Ik zou anderen zeker aanraden om een boudoirshoot te doen, omdat het shooten zelf een hele leuke ervaring is en het helend werkt om jezelf mooi en vrouwelijk afgebeeld te zien. Ik moest lachen om jouw vraag of er een lepeltje in het bakkie zwart kon. Tijdens de shoot voelde ik me heel ontspannen en vond het door jouw manier van werken en omgaan met mij totaal niet spannend om in lingerie en naakt te zijn. Je liet tussendoor regelmatig de geschoten foto's zien die zonder bewerking al zó mooi waren! Dit zorgde ervoor dat ik veel zelfvertrouwen voelde bij het shooten.

FAQ

Where does the shoot take place?

A boudoir photoshoot is usually at your home. It's the place where you feel most comfortable. I would be happy to come to your place. The most important aspect of an intimate shoot like a boudoir photoshoot is that you feel at ease.










What lingerie or clothes should I wear?

As you can see from my photos on this website, the boudoir photoshoot is not about the lingerie, but about you as a woman. Choose simple basic sets in one color, preferably dark. Beautiful lace is always a good choice! 1 or 2 sets are sufficient.










How long does a shoot take? 

For a boudoir photoshoot, we allocate around 2 hours, but we won't start taking photos right away. It's important to me to get to feel comfortable first. Building a foundation of trust and intimacy takes more than just a few minutes. So, we'll start by having a conversation about who you are, who I am, and your outlook on life. We'll also discuss your preferences for the shoot, things that bring you joy, and what you're proud of.










Do I have to have my make-up or hair done by a professional?

Absolutely not! Just be yourself and come as you are. You are already beautiful and you don't need any extra layers to make you look better. My approach as a boudoir photographer is all about authenticity and sincerity. Together, we'll find ways to capture you at your very best. Through the right poses and unique use of lighting, we'll create photos that are special and artistic. Feel free to apply the makeup that makes you feel comfortable and wear your hair the way you prefer.
