As a wedding photographer in Nijmegen, Marc van Kempen creates warm, human wedding reports. As a 'people photographer' he takes his time—coffee, calm, and a personal approach that puts you at ease.
Marc van Kempen is a wedding photographer from Nijmegen with a distinctly human starting point: the story of your day and the faces behind it. He likes to call himself a “people photographer” — searching out genuine, warm connection and recording your wedding day in images that link future and memory. His work breathes calm; he takes his time, begins with a good conversation and only shapes the light when you are ready. What sets Marc apart is the combination of engaged, story-driven reportage and artisanal analogue know‑how. Alongside photographing in a relaxed, natural style he masters the old craft of the darkroom: handmade Gelatin Silver prints and careful analogue prints made from the original negative give your most important images a tangible, timeless quality. His analogue work has museum-level appreciation and reveals his love of craft and material — a special element for couples who want to preserve both emotion and workmanship. On your wedding day Marc works in a calm, respectful way: unobtrusively present during ceremonies and key moments, alert to small glances and unexpected details. He blends documentary spontaneity with a love of portraiture; from understated ceremony photography to a strong portrait of the couple in a quiet moment. Before the day he likes to take time to discuss wishes so atmosphere and expectations are clear. During the shoot he creates a relaxed environment — a cup of coffee, a chat, and then the light. Marc emphasises authenticity and integrity: no forced poses, no trendy filters that distance your image, but photography that touches you now and later. In addition to wedding reports he offers tailored engagement and portrait sessions that fit beautifully with the wedding reportage, creating coherence and trust. If you choose Marc as your wedding photographer in Nijmegen, you choose an experienced, committed craftsman with an eye for humanity and craft. He captures the warmth of your day and records it in images that preserve, move and endure through true workmanship.
