Amsterdam Photographer Sim Sawyers
If you are looking for a photographer in Amsterdam to take stunning family photographs, you must have a look at Sim Sawyers photography. Inspired by Bolllywood and fairytales, Sim creates light and airy portraits full of love and magic that you’ll cherish for years to come.
When you book with her, she sends you her own personal Style Guide and Prep Guide that walks you through everything from colour palettes and dress silhouettes to what kinds of snacks to bring to the session for your kids.
Sim specialises in capturing your little ones just how they are, and sessions with her are full of dancing, exploring, and age appropriate games.
In the winter months, she converts her home into an elegant and ethereal studio so your family can escape the cold and rain that Amsterdam
winters bring. Your little ones will have a much better time playing indoors than they will standing outside in their nice clothing.
However, in the spring and summer, Sim loves to go outdoors for sessions. Born and raised in sunny Alabama, she will do anything for a golden hour photoshoot out in nature. Instead of trying to pose on the Amsterdam sidewalks, Sim takes you to parks where your kids can run and play in the grass, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Maternity
When you book your maternity photo session with Sim, consider joining her Motherhood Membership plan, which allows you to document your
pregnancy through your baby’s first year at a fraction of the price of booking separate photoshoots. And the cherry on top is that you don’t
have to carry the mental load of scheduling sessions throughout your baby’s first year because you’re already on her calendar and she’ll text you when it’s time to pick a date (that works with baby’s nap schedule, of course).
Newborn Sessions
Don’t know if you want an at home or in studio newborn session?
Don’t worry, Sim has a list of pros and cons for you—but in case you’re still not sure, Sim recommends waiting until your baby is here and then figuring out whether a home or studio photoshoot fits better with your new lifestyle.
Whether at home or in the studio, Sim focuses on natural newborn posing, which means no unnatural props and lots of snuggles with mom and dad. Siblings always welcome!
Family Sessions
Your family is now complete, nothing “new” is going on. Yeah, right. If you’re a parent, you know your family is always changing, the kids are always growing, finding new ways to simultaneously raise your blood pressure and melt your heart. And while your kids aren’t squishy newborns anymore, you still want to capture your family just as you are.
Capable Community
Sim is a member of the Capable Community, which means she has completed courses on posing children who cannot support themselves and posing equipment. She comes prepared with sensory-seeking and sensory-avoiding prompts for your children, depending on their needs.
More About Sim
“I’m a wife, mom, artist, and incessant daydreamer. Ill-advised baking challenges are my favorite things to tackle on a Sunday morning, and I truly think pastries are best enjoyed warm, sitting on the floor by the oven. Always a closeted girly-girl, I realized when we found out our second (and last) baby was another boy I couldn’t wait on a daughter to fully embrace all the pink frilly things.”
