Hi, I’m Temmy!
Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m a family photographer based in Lakewood, New Jersey, and a proud mom of four fun-loving (and yes, slightly wild!) kids. I grew up in Belgium and now call Lakewood home.

​

As a New Jersey family photographer, I specialize in outdoor and studio family photography that captures the beautiful chaos, the quiet moments, and everything in between — all in a soft, natural, and timeless style.

Before I picked up a camera, I was a teacher, and that experience still shapes how I work — especially with kids. I’ve taught children of all ages, including those with special needs, and I bring a calm, patient energy to every session. Kids sense when they’re understood, and that’s when the magic happens — when their real personalities come through.

As a mom, I understand how much goes into getting everyone ready for photos. That’s why sessions with me are relaxed and not rushed. I'll guide you when needed, but I also leave space for natural moments to unfold. 

​

Before your session, we’ll go over all the details together so you feel prepared. Afterward, you’ll come back for a viewing session where I’ll help you select your favorite images.

​

Art has always been a part of my life. As a child, I was constantly sketching faces, and later I fell in love with oil painting. Photography became a natural extension of that — a way to capture people and moments with the same intention and feeling.

​

I photograph families of all sizes, from little ones just starting out to large, lively families, and I focus on creating images that feel genuine, connected, and full of life.

Clients often tell me how relaxed and enjoyable the experience feels — and how the photos capture moments they didn’t even notice at the time. That’s exactly what I aim for.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me chasing golden hour, sketching ideas over a latte, or curled up with a good book. I love light, I love nature, and I love working with people — especially when I get to bring it all together in a meaningful way.

​

I’m based in Lakewood, NJ and photograph families throughout the surrounding areas, and I also travel to Monsey, NY for sessions.
