Every story is unique, and so is every session. I know you might have questions about what to expect, how to prepare, or how it all works. Here you’ll find answers to the most common things clients ask me. And if you still have something on your mind, I’m always just a message away.
You can book directly through my online booking calendar by selecting your preferred package, or by sending me a message via the contact form. If you are unsure which session fits you best, I will gladly guide you and help you choose. You can also reach me directly on WhatsApp for a quick chat as sometimes it is the easiest way to connect.
For maternity and newborn sessions, it’s best to reach out early since these are time-sensitive and spots can fill quickly. Creative portraits and headshots are more flexible, but booking two to three weeks in advance is recommended.
he sweet spot is usually between 28 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. Your bump has a beautiful shape, and you will still feel comfortable moving and posing.
Newborn sessions work best within the first 10 to 14 days after birth when your baby is still very sleepy and easy to position. That said, I also capture older babies — every stage has its own magic.
I no longer have a permanent studio space, but we can book one on request for an additional fee. Most of my sessions happen outdoors or on-location — at your home, in nature, or in spaces that feel authentic to your story.
Yes. I provide styling guidance and wardrobe tips tailored to your session. I can also recommend tones, textures, and outfits that photograph beautifully. For newborn sessions, I have a selection of wraps, blankets, and little outfits you can use.
I do not offer in-house hair and makeup, but I can recommend trusted makeup artists I’ve worked with. If you’d like, I can help arrange this as an add-on service so everything is coordinated for your session.
It depends on the session type:
I always leave room for breaks, especially with little ones.
Each package includes a private online gallery where you can view a curated selection of the best photographs from your session. The number of final images depends on your chosen package.
Yes. I work with fine-art printing labs to offer albums, mounted prints, and other bespoke keepsakes. You’ll be able to order directly from your private gallery.
Don’t worry — this happens more often than you think. I build plenty of time into newborn sessions to allow for feeding, soothing, and little breaks. Patience is part of my process, and I always work around your baby’s rhythm.
Yes, absolutely. Life with babies and children can be unpredictable. Just let me know as soon as you can, and we’ll find a new date that works for you.
Yes. I am based in Amsterdam but happy to travel within the region or beyond for special projects. Travel fees may apply depending on the distance.
Yes, I offer beautifully designed gift vouchers that make a meaningful present for baby showers, birthdays, or anniversaries.
You can contact me directly via the contact form or WhatsApp to order yours.
Yes, but always with a natural, soft-touch approach. I remove distractions like blemishes or stray hairs while keeping skin textures and tones true to life. My goal is to keep you looking like yourself, at your best.
No. Part of my creative process is the careful curation and editing of your gallery to match the Olalab aesthetic. I promise you’ll receive the very best selection of images.
Your experience matters as much as your images. I put a lot of care into understanding your wishes and preparing for the session, so mismatches are rare. Before we even shoot, we discuss style, mood, and expectations to make sure we’re on the same page.
After the session, I carefully select and edit the strongest images that reflect the essence of you. If there’s ever something that feels off, let me know — small adjustments are always possible, and I want you to leave with photos you truly love.
