Steffie van den Akker Fotografie & Keramiek

As a wedding photographer based in Maastricht, I specialise in wedding photography that focuses on authenticity and emotion. With over 14 years of experience I deliberately take on only a limited number of weddings each year so I can capture your day with full attention. My style is pure, unobtrusive and documentary — I seek the unplanned moments: the glances, small touches and the atmosphere that tell your story. Why choose me as your wedding photographer? Because I believe the most beautiful wedding photos are made when people can be themselves. I work with natural light and a calm, empathetic approach so even those who find being in front of the camera stressful can relax. As a mother and as someone who values vulnerable moments, I understand how meaningful this chapter is. That care is visible in images that feel timeless and full of significance. How I work: we start with a relaxed introductory meeting to discuss your wishes and the mood of the day. On the wedding day I’m present without dominating — discreet but always alert to important moments and surprising details. From preparations to the last dance, my aim is to create a wedding reportage that tells the whole story: not only the highlights but also the small moments that often mean the most later on. As a wedding photographer I combine attention to composition and light with a documentary approach; I photograph with respect for your day and for the people around you. After the reportage I carefully select the best images and deliver a collection of wedding photos that are both vivid and understated — images that bring you back to the feeling of that day. Based in Maastricht, I regularly work throughout South Limburg and across the Netherlands. Whether you choose an intimate ceremony or a lively celebration, I’d love to help capture your wedding day honestly and lovingly.
