Esmé Gernette Fotografie

As a wedding photographer based in Zwijndrecht, I am Esmé Gernette and I work with couples who want to remember their wedding day exactly as it was: full of small happy moments, spontaneity and sincere emotion. My style is color‑accurate, warm and timeless; I aim for distinctive, enduring images you’ll still want to hang on your wall in twenty years’ time. I make the unfamiliar feel familiar and capture fleeting moments so you can later look back on a story that truly fits. Why choose me? Because I do more than take pretty pictures. I search for those real moments: a glance, a laugh, a tear or the unconscious gesture between two people. My approach is calm and involved: I give direction when needed, but I remain alert and discreet in the background when spontaneous moments arise. That balance of guidance and documentary sensibility helps you stay at ease and allows natural images to emerge. The way I work with couples is personal and relaxed. From our first meeting to the wedding day I create a safe, joyful atmosphere — whether we meet in Zwijndrecht, walk in nature, or celebrate your wedding elsewhere. During the shoot I stay attentive to light, color and rhythm, and I combine color images with strong black‑and‑white moments for variety and emotional depth. I tell your story in photographs that feel warm while remaining honest and pure. I’m happy to travel across the Netherlands for weddings, though I remain rooted in my hometown of Zwijndrecht. Besides wedding photography you can also commission additional visual content from me; video and short films are available as extras — however, my focus and specialty remain bridal photography. In short: are you looking for a wedding photographer who is engaged, detail‑focused and honest in image selection? Someone who follows the pace of your day and captures those small, treasured moments? I will lovingly and attentively document your wedding day so your memories remain tangible and timeless.
