2021 was the year I got pregnant of my daughter Yuna. We shared this news with our friends, including Jonathan and Marinka who by then didn't say anything about expecting a child themselves! When they told us a week later, this was a crazy moment. So special to be able to share the whole journey of becoming a mom with close friend! Pim, Marinka's son was expected 4 days after Yuna, but decided to be born 4 days before Yuna.

In the beginning of 2022 I took these pictures on a magical foggy day in The Netherlands. It was pretty cold outside, but Marinka rocked this photoshoot!

"Soulia is a great photographer! She gives clear instructions for poses that look good and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera, which really shows in the end result. She also has great ideas around the composition, as well as the editing of the pictures in the end. I really love the warm colours and style and am super happy with the pictures. I enjoyed doing this shoot with her!"
