Fotografie JZ / Jasper van der Zwan

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. As a specialist wedding photographer based in Hardenberg, I document wedding reportage with one clear goal: to capture your story honestly, spontaneously and with strong technical quality. With a background in photonics education and years of experience in reportage photography, I have the expertise to portray meaningful emotions and small details in a natural way. Why choose me as your wedding photographer? I combine personal involvement with technical know-how. My approach is reportage-driven: I focus on moments, light and composition so the images remain true to the atmosphere of the day. At the same time I make room for a few deliberate, stylish portraits so you receive both documentary images and timeless wedding photographs. How I work with couples: we start with an introductory meeting to discuss your wishes, schedule and favorite locations. This conversation brings calm to the wedding day and helps me feel the flow of your day. During the event I work discreetly and attentively — seeking genuine looks, spontaneous interactions and the rituals that make your day unique. After the reportage you’ll receive a first digital preview within a short time, followed by a carefully edited selection in a style that suits your story. In addition to the wedding reportage I offer a loveshoot / pre-wedding session: a relaxed moment to get used to the camera and to each other before the big day. This session often helps couples feel more natural and confident in front of the lens on their wedding day. My work is rooted in respect for your day and the people around you. Whether it’s intimate moments during the ceremony or exuberant party images, I aim for photography that brings you back to how you felt that day. As a wedding photographer in Hardenberg and the surrounding Overijssel area, I combine creative curiosity with technical reliability so you receive a beautiful, complete wedding reportage. Interested in exploring what’s possible together? Please get in touch to arrange an introductory meeting — we often start with a cup of coffee to see if we click and to discuss how I can best capture your wedding day.
