mean to us " . -Ralph Hattersley-

 

 

Nice to meet you

 

My name is Erika Brouwer. I come from a small village south of Slovakia. In 2007 I met my greatest love Jeroen in Austrian Alps. After a year of dating between the Netherlands, Ireland and Slovakia, we moved to Delft together. We have 3 sweet children and we are happily married.

 

Love for photography

 

Photography has been my great passion for a long time. I take pictures of our daily life, for our children to see what our life was like, what did we do, how did we celebrate parties and holidays.

​

For my family I make a large photo album with hundreds of photos every year. What a treat to watch it every time.

​

In 2015 I started as an independent photographer, to capture precious memories for mijn klanten.

 

After my own children were born, I went further into photography of newborns. I love babies and I am extremely grateful and proud to serve people at this time in their lives.

Fun facts about me

I am a romantic dreamer, nature lover, I like to bake delicious cakes for and with my children. I like cycling and yoga. Harry Potter books are my all time favorite. Romantic comedies and fantasy movies will make my day.

 

Giving back to community

 

Since the beginning of 2019, I've been working for the Earlybirds Foundation, making photo reportages  of premature babies in the hospital. For many parents, this photo shoot is a valuable memory, allowing them to look back at an emotional and sometimes difficult period. I think it is very special to be able to do this.
