Portrait of photographer Alisa Potter

Hi, I am Alisa. I photograph people in and around Arnhem: families, portraits, events.

By day I’m a biomedical scientist in Utrecht. I also do headshots, academic ceremonies and branding, like our lab website I designed.

How I work

  1. Before. A short call or message: you tell me what you have in mind, and we pick a place and time together. I’ll send tips on what to wear and, if kids are joining, how to prepare them.
  2. The shoot. One to two hours. I let you be yourselves and give direction where it helps.
  3. Result. I select and edit the best photos, usually around 50. Within two weeks you get a private online gallery where you can download them.

Based in Arnhem, also available in Nijmegen, Utrecht and Amsterdam. I work in English, Russian and Dutch (Dutch isn’t my strongest, but it’s enough to guide the kids).
