Portret Mariette

Welcome to Portret Mariette

Wedding photography for couples who find beauty in the little things.

Meet Marijke, the photographer behind Portret Mariette. With a deep love for connection, meaningful stories, and the quiet moments that often matter most, she believes the most beautiful photographs are often found in the moments in between.

With a gentle documentary approach and an eye for refined details, she captures weddings as they naturally unfold: honest, emotional and beautifully unscripted. No stiff posing, just imagery that reflects not only what your wedding day looked like, but especially how it felt.

Her style blends timeless elegance, editorial refinement and heartfelt storytelling. From intimate celebrations in Belgium to destination weddings across Europe, she is always drawn to the moments that might otherwise go unnoticed, yet become the ones you treasure most years later.

Long after the flowers have faded, the cake has been eaten and the music has stopped playing, your memories remain. Those are the moments Marijke wants to preserve.

About Portret Mariette

For Marijke, photography has always been about people, stories and connection.

A mom of two daughters and a lover of travel, nature and beautiful stories, she finds inspiration in the moments that often pass unnoticed.

She has a soft spot for beautiful light, golden hour, winding roads leading to unknown destinations and long summer evenings spent sharing a glass of rosé on a sunny terrace.

From a young age, she was fascinated by photographs and the stories they hold. Today, she combines that lifelong passion with her love for human connection, accompanying couples on one of the most meaningful days of their lives.

What moves her most are the small moments that often pass unnoticed: a loving glance, a warm embrace, or a hand reaching for another. To her, those moments are the true essence of a wedding day.

Through Portret Mariette, Marijke hopes to create photographs that remain just as meaningful years from now as they are today and continue to evoke the same emotions for years to come.
