Nardo Jacobs Fotografie

I am Nardo Jacobs — a wedding photographer from Zwolle with a clear passion for capturing real moments. What sets me apart is my approach: I look for the sincere glance, the spontaneous gesture and the small interactions that make a wedding day truly memorable. For me, wedding photography is not just about recording events, but about telling your story through images. My style is reportage-oriented and natural. I prefer to work unobtrusively and let moments unfold so that the photos don’t feel posed but remain authentic and timeless. At the same time I draw on my experience in portrait photography to present you as a couple with strength and ease during the photoshoot — relaxed, personal and with attention to composition and light. That combination of documentary sensitivity for emotion and portrait expertise results in wedding photos that are both spontaneous and elegant. How I typically work: we start with an introductory meeting in which your wishes and the day’s schedule become clear. That preparation helps me know exactly where to be on the wedding day without disrupting the flow. On the day itself I bring calm and flexibility: close enough for emotional moments, yet discreet enough to let people be themselves. For couples who want it, I also offer engagement or love-shoot sessions — a great way to get to know each other and feel comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. My motivation comes from the belief that a photo can be more than a moment: it’s a memory that grows. Since I began photographing over the years I’ve learned to adapt quickly, notice details and put people at ease. That accessible, personal approach is reflected in every wedding album and every reportage I deliver.
