Fotografie van Aken

As a wedding photographer in Apeldoorn, I (Frank van Aken) capture your day with a clear vision: photographs that show more than just what happened. My approach is in service of the couple — I work unobtrusively and observantly so that spontaneous emotions and authentic moments take center stage. I like to call this a visual report: honest, atmospheric and personal. My studio with a spacious garden on the 2e Wormenseweg offers extra possibilities for portraits and group photos close to home. Prefer an on-location shoot? No problem — I will come to you. Whether it’s an intimate ceremony or a larger celebration, I create a bespoke wedding reportage tailored to your wishes and the atmosphere of the day. What sets me apart is a combination of a creative eye and years of experience. Since I started in photography I’ve learned to work with light, composition and timing so that both quiet moments and festive scenes come across with impact. My background in design and the creation of PhotoArt sometimes appears subtly in the post-processing: an image that touches beyond the portrait. The process is clear and personal. We begin with an intake where we discuss your ideas, important moments and practical wishes. On the day itself I aim for a relaxed atmosphere; by observing and anticipating I often photograph moments before anyone consciously poses. After the shoot I carefully select and edit the images so you receive a balanced and coherent series. I deliver wedding reportages that include both traditional portraits and documentary-style images — depending on what suits you. As a local wedding photographer in Apeldoorn I place great value on clarity, service and enjoyment during the shoot. Want inventive PhotoArt images or a pure reportage character? Together we’ll make a plan. Contact me to arrange a meeting and discuss the possibilities for a personal, tailor-made wedding reportage in Apeldoorn and the surrounding area.
