ABOUT MORRIS

Morris Studios is a multidisciplinary photography studio based in Nijmegen, The Netherlands, founded and led by photographer Mathijs Hanenkamp. We specialize in creating authentic, emotion-driven imagery that tells compelling stories for brands, entrepreneurs, and creative individuals.

Our approach to photography is centered on authenticity and narrative. We believe that the most powerful images emerge naturally, which is why we approach every shoot with an observant and intuitive eye—ensuring your story remains at the forefront of every frame we capture.

With years of experience working with a diverse range of clients—from global brands like Danone/Nutricia and Van Der Valk Hotels to creative professionals and solo entrepreneurs—we've developed a reputation for creating visual legacies that stand the test of time.

Our work has been featured in notable publications such as NRC, Ran Media, Lookslikefilm, Gelderlander, and Digifoto Pro, and we've collaborated with clients across industries, including DFDS, ABN-AMRO, Wealtheon, Johnny Wonder, Okura Hotel Amsterdam, and many more.

What sets Morris Studios apart is our commitment to creating photography that feels real, honest, and timeless. We don't just take pictures; we craft visual narratives that capture the essence of who you truly are—whether you're an individual seeking to express your authentic self or a brand looking to connect more deeply with your audience.

At Morris Studios, our mission is to create authentic visual narratives that resonate on a deeper level. We believe photography should do more than just document—it should evoke emotion, tell stories, and create lasting connections.

HOW IT WORKS

At Morris Studios, we've developed a streamlined process to ensure your photography experience is both enjoyable and productive. Our approach combines structure with flexibility, allowing us to deliver exceptional results while adapting to your unique needs.

Step 1:
Introduction

We'll begin with a conversation about your vision and objectives. During this initial consultation, we'll discuss what you're looking for and how we can bring your ideas to life. This is also the time to cover practical details such as deadlines, payments, and any questions you might have. This foundation ensures we're aligned from the start.

Step 2:
Style

After our introduction, we'll create a moodboard that highlights the style for your shoot or concept. This visual guide will help us align on aesthetic direction, including what to wear, what to bring, and potential locations. The moodboard serves as our creative roadmap, ensuring your final images match your vision.

Step 3:
Photoshoot

On the day of your shoot, we'll guide you through the entire process. Our approach is designed to help you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. We create an environment where authentic moments can emerge naturally, capturing genuine expressions and interactions that tell your story.

Step 4:
Selection/retouching

Following the shoot, we'll make an initial selection of the best images and apply color grading to enhance their impact. From this curated selection, you'll choose your favorite shots for us to finalize through professional retouching. This collaborative approach ensures you receive images that exceed your expectations.
