With a background in fine arts and a deeply intuitive eye, she brings emotional presence, artistic precision, and wholehearted dedication to every wedding she captures. Her work is guided by quiet strength, poetic sensitivity, and an unwavering devotion to truth.

She notices what others might miss — a glance, a breath, the stillness between moments. Her images are as intentional as they are tender: refined, honest, and full of soul. Always present, never intrusive, she documents the atmosphere, energy, and essence of your day — just as it was felt.

Services

Daphne creates more than photographs — she creates space.

A space where you can be fully yourself. Where you feel seen, held, and remembered. Her approach is rooted in deep listening, presence, and trust. She meets each couple with attention and a heart wide open.

On your wedding day, she moves like a gentle observer — sensing, not directing. Her presence is soft, grounded, and quietly attuned to every nuance. But behind her serene energy lies a joyful, unstoppable fire: the drive to give you her absolute best. Every frame is made with intention, care, and artistic devotion.

Her photographs do more than document.

They breathe. They hold meaning. They bring you back to the glances, gestures, and silences — the invisible gold of your story.

Daphne Matthys offers fine art wedding photography with a soulful, documentary approach. Her signature style is defined by:

• Emotional presence – a genuine connection with each couple
• A refined eye – thoughtful use of light, detail, and composition
• Gentle guidance – offered only when needed, always with softness and flow
• Intuition and awareness – she captures what words cannot express
• Relentless dedication – she gives everything to make your story shine

She also weaves in subtle influences from the worlds of art, nature, and poetry — elevating each wedding into something timeless, personal, and deeply felt.
