I offer portrait and fashion photoshoots with a big focus an art direction.
I love creative shoots and aim to make each shoot into a piece of art that perfectly fits your vision and style.


Fashion Photography

These shoots are centered around creative direction and styling. Inspired by editorial fashion photography, art, and contemporary photography.

These shoots work well both for individuals who are looking for a high-end editorial shoot, and for brands looking for a strong and creative selection of work to showcase their products. For example: jewelry brands, fashion & footwear designers, beauty brands, etc.

I'll come up with the complete visual world that we want to build. I’ll create guidelines for hair & make-up, styling, set design, and of course, photography.

This package is all about art direction and world-building, which, I believe, is my strongest feature as a photographer. You’re not just purchasing a photoshoot, but you’ll get an entire visual world focused on art, beauty, and fashion to match your brand or personality.

Before the shoot happens, I'll develop a creative concept, including a personalised moodboard that outlines the styling, colour palette, make-up and hair, props, set design, basically the atmosphere and world we want to create for this shoot. We’ll discuss the moodboard together in an online meeting, where we can make adjustments and the final tweaks before we bring everything together.

Most fashion shoots take place in my studio, but they can be held at almost any location. Please note that certain locations may involve additional rental or travel costs.

On the shooting day, I like to have the time to experiment and create the ideal circumstances for the best results. Therefore, I don’t work with a strict time frame, but generally shoots take up approximately 3 hours.

Portrait Photography

The portrait package is perfect for those who are looking for high-end portraits, a model portfolio, or casting photos.

This package includes a minimum of 20 beautifully edited images. Twenty is simply the starting point. If we've created more photographs that I'm proud of, I'll include those as well rather than leaving them on my hard drive.

Your session will take place in my photo studio in Culemborg at Havendijk 6, the Netherlands. I work with professional studio lighting and backdrops, and will make sure you have enough variety in your portfolio.

This means you’ll receive portraits, half- and full-body shots, different backdrop colors (a minimum of 3 different sets), variety in lighting, and I’ll assist you with styling. I usually shoot a minimum of 3 different outfits, but this can be adjusted to your wishes.

For me, photography is more than creating beautiful images. It's about creating a visual world that reflects who you are.

I approach every photoshoot with a strong sense of creative direction. Whether it's through styling, make-up, lighting, composition, or atmosphere, Creativity, artistry, and authenticity are my strongest features. I love everything art- and fashion-related and have studied photography and fashion for years, whether that’s while attending the Art Academy of Amsterdam (Gerrit Rietveld) or working with and assisting photographers all over the world. From Sydney, Australia, to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and New York, USA. My entire life, I’ve been fascinated by photography, beauty, and fashion. That lifelong passion fuels my work to this day and is what excites me to keep creating and perfecting my skills to achieve the best result possible.

Rather than just capturing your face with pretty lighting, I want every image to feel like a piece of art. Every shoot is thoughtfully tailored around each individual, no shoot is the same. Each shoot is uniquely crafted to create the visual world that best suits the model or product, resulting in images that feel stylish, creative, and artistic.

The best way to understand my approach is simply by looking at my portfolio. I believe my work speaks for itself.

Besides being a creative, I’m a sensitive guy as well. I like to take some time to connect with you and to make you feel comfortable and at home in my studio. This is a safe space where we can experiment, be a little bit goofy, and let go of shame and insecurities.

I aim to remain open every time a new client steps in front of my camera. I treat them with kindness, respect and curiosity. I’m a professional in my work, very approachable, calm, and empathetic. This shoot is about and for you. It takes guts to truly let yourself be seen, especially with a camera in front of your face, so it’s my job to make it feel as effortless as possible. People often tell me how much they enjoyed the shoot and how relaxed it felt, like you’re just hanging out with a friend while being creative and taking amazing pictures.

Simply send me an email at berendvdbrand@gmail.com and tell me whether you’re looking for a fashion or portrait photoshoot. If you have any questions, I’d love to know! I’ll help you out asap.

From there, we'll schedule an online meeting or call to get to know each other and discuss your ideas, preferences, and vision for the shoot.

Once we've defined everything, we'll set a date for the shoot. I'll start working on the moodboard and concept, and then the final step is welcoming you to the studio!

You can expect your photos to be ready in 2 to 3 weeks.

Not at all! Most of my clients have never been in front of a professional camera before. Throughout the shoot, I'll guide you with posing, movement, and expression, making sure you feel comfortable and confident.

Once you've booked your session, we'll discuss clothing, colours, and styling together. I'll help you choose outfits that suit both your personality and the creative direction of the shoot.
For inspiration and styling guidance, I’ll also put fashion references in your moodboard.
We’ll discuss everything in detail during our online meeting.

After the photoshoot, I'll send you an invoice by email. Payment is due within 14 days, unless agreed otherwise. Once the invoice has been paid, you'll receive your edited images within the agreed delivery timeframe.
