Fardo Dopstra

Netherlands

In a time of Photoshop and AI, the search for what is real doesn’t end far from where you started it: at home, with your family. I will take REAL pictures of your family. I aim to create images you love, which increase in value and will be even more important to you in 20 or 30 years.

I love capturing your real life and your uniqueness. When it comes to family photography, I strongly feel everything is best just the way it is. Your house, your looks, your personality, your quirks, your kids’ interests, your moods, your interactions, the way you spend your days. Real is the new perfect.

My husband Erik and I live in Groningen, The Netherlands, with our cat. We love making our home a place we love and where we feel comfy and cozy. When we’re not at home you can find us exploring the world traveling, going out for dinner, meeting friends or riding our bicycles to the ice cream shop. He probably spent half his life waiting for me as I will stop to pet every cat in the neighbourhood. I am a big lover of animals and I love doing drawing challenges my niecelette comes up with. I usually lose, she’s hard to beat ;)

Let's chat and let me truly SEE you, through my lens.
