As a specialist wedding photographer in Hoogeveen I capture your day with care and attention. Spontaneous, narrative bridal reportage focused on emotion; optional photobooth adds fun to the evening.
I am Martin van Schonewille of Schonewille Fotografie and wedding photography is my heartbeat: since the 1990s I have been capturing moments that feel timeless. In 2007 I turned that passion into my full-time work and have since specialized in bridal reportage. I proudly call myself a wedding photographer from Hoogeveen: I know the region well, I love working at the most beautiful venues in Drenthe and beyond, and I collaborate with couples to make the day truly their own. Why choose Schonewille Fotografie? Because I create wedding photos that tell more than a posed image. My style focuses on spontaneous, narrative images: I seek the genuine moments, the small gestures and unexpected glances that keep memories alive. I work quietly and unobtrusively so you and your guests can keep feeling rather than posing, and I can capture those pure emotions. At the same time I’m happy to take that extra step when it matters: an intimate group shot, a creative portrait of the newlyweds or a fresh perspective that sometimes means getting down on my knees. How do I work with couples? Every process starts with contact and a personal conversation. We discuss your wishes, the schedule of the day and which images you most want to look back on. On the wedding day I’m present with clear focus: from ceremony to reception, from family moments to atmosphere shots — I build a cohesive visual story that embraces the whole day. Afterwards I carefully select and edit the photos; the final collection is a series faithful to your day. Extras and options: in addition to the bridal reportage I offer additions that complete the experience — think luxury albums and a photobooth that brings extra joy to the evening. These additions fit seamlessly with my approach: honest, tangible memories that invite you to return to them again and again.
