Hi!

My name is Dorien and I was born and raised in The Netherlands. I’m married to Mr. Lew and we have two stunning little boys under 4. I love people stories. Ever since I can remember I’ve been taking photos of people. As a little girl, my parents would sometimes give me these analog, disposable cameras and I would wait for the perfect moment to take a photo (you only had so many snaps!). Fast forward to the beginning of the century when a digital camera found its way to me, and I was hooked. A few years ago I picked up a DSLR and started capturing the precious life events my friends would go through. What started out as a hobby, has become one of my biggest passions.

I love being able to document people’s life-changing moments as most of the details are often forgotten. From experience I can tell that giving birth becomes a vague memory of what actually happened, because of well… birth. Being engaged is such an adventurous time in a couple's life, but we sometimes tend to rush through those months while planning the perfect wedding. During pregnancy, you can feel like a million dollars, or pounds (pun intended) or anything in between, but the fact is that there’s a miracle growing inside of you.
Now imagine you’re a few years down the road and you want to reminisce, or show your kids or friends what you looked like when you first met your spouse, or when you were pregnant, or when your kids were born…

This is why I do what I do: helping you relive those moments.

I asked my husband to describe me and here’s what he wrote: adventurous, fun-loving, having great attention to detail, having eclectic taste, multi-disciplined, visionary; and he still loves me after 9 years, so there’s that too.

I’d love to hear from you.

Love from Amsterdam,

Dorien
