About me
Animal photographer
I can not imagine a life without animals.
about Zoë
My name is Zoë ter Braake and i am a 17 years old dutch girl with a huge passion for animal photography. This passion did not come out of nowhere. Ever since i was little I have had a love for animals and their behaviours. Especially dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I own a lot of dogs and i love to spend time with them.
Roughly three years ago i bought my very first own camera. Ever since that moment my camera has been a part of me. I bring my camera everywhere i go. Dog and horse photography are my biggest passions. But it does not end with taking the photo, photoshop also is a big part of my creative life. I spend hours and hours editing my photos, developing my own style and making my pictures speak to everyone. I hope you are as enthusiastic about my photography as I am.
Some facts about me
I love nature
A big aspect in my photos is the nature. Ofcource i am in to try other thing but in general I take my photos in nature. This makes my photos more natural and it makes them speak for themselves. Also the nature creates a relaxing atmosphere while shooting which is very important to me.
relaxed, cheerfull and fun
The most important thing for me is the fun and the relaxed atmosphere while shooting. I love interacting with people and discovering their different qualitys. I currently study psychology in Amsterdam. So besides animals I am also very interested in people and their behaviour. i think it’s very important that people feel like they can be their selves when they are with me. respect is very important to me and i hope to create a low pressure, relaxed and fun atmosphere for people so they can be their true selves. I laugh a lot and try to give my clients the best experience possible.
