Myrthe Vlasveld — Wild Heart Tales
The storyteller

Hi, I'm Myrthe.

Wedding photographer, travel lover, and the person who will probably make you laugh right before I take the shot. I'm here for the love, the beauty, and every little moment in between.

Behind the scenes
Who I am

The heart behind Wild Heart Tales

I became a wedding photographer because honestly, what's better than this? Beautiful people, meaningful moments, real emotions, and the honour of being the person who gets to capture all of it. I never take that lightly.

I'm Dutch, I talk a lot, and I genuinely love people. Somehow couples still tell me they forgot I was there. I'm choosing to take that as a compliment. I think that's because when you're genuinely enjoying the day alongside them, the camera just becomes part of the background. I care about your wedding not just as a job, but because beautiful, love-filled days genuinely make me happy.

I also keep things calm and organised behind the scenes, so even when timelines shift or the light does something unexpected, you won't notice any stress from my side. You'll just get the photos.

Beyond the camera

A little more about me

When I'm not behind a camera, you'll usually find me somewhere between a strong coffee and a spontaneous plan to go somewhere I've never been. I'm drawn to places with texture: rugged coastlines, ancient cities, wide open landscapes that make you feel wonderfully small.

At home I share my space with Floki, my cat, Alejandro, my bunny, and my boyfriend Karl. We spend a lot of time dreaming about future trips, cooking together at home, and staying active through sports.

Sport keeps me sane, cooking keeps me happy, and travel keeps me inspired. A full life outside of work makes me a better photographer inside it.

How I work
How I work

Three things every
couple deserves.

I believe stunning visuals and real emotion are not a trade-off. They belong together. Here's what that looks like in practice.

At ease in front of the camera

To feel at ease
in front of the camera.

Before your wedding day we'll have a videocall to get to know each other a little, talk through your day and make sure everything feels good. If you want to take it a step further, a love shoot is a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera together, and for us to actually spend some time together before the big day. Then closer to the wedding we'll jump on another call to go through the final details. And if you happen to be based around Utrecht, I'm always up for a coffee instead.

  • Pre-wedding coffee or video call
  • Relaxed, unforced direction
  • No stiff poses — ever
Images that feel true

Images that feel
true, not posed.

Your love story is genuinely beautiful — it doesn't need staging. My job is to be in the right place at the right time, with the right light, and to be invisible enough that you forget someone is watching.

  • Documentary-style approach
  • Light-led, honest imagery
  • Romantic and cinematic in equal measure
A photographer who truly cares

A photographer who
truly cares.

I take a limited number of weddings each year — by choice. Because I want to actually know you, show up for you fully, and give your day the creative attention it deserves. You're not a date in my calendar. You're a story I'm proud to tell.

  • Limited bookings per year
  • Full day presence and dedication
  • Personal connection from first contact

What couples say

The best part of this job is reading these. Every single time.

Anton and Alva, Tuscany Tuscany · 2025

"From the first meeting to the last, she did everything perfectly. She made us look incredible even though we don't really like being in front of the camera. She captured every important moment from early morning to the party at night. Choose her and you will be overwhelmed."

Anton & AlvaTuscany · 2025
Oleksandra and Daniel, Madeira Madeira · 2024

"From the very first moment, we felt completely at ease, as if we had known her for years. The photos and videos she created for us exceeded anything we could have imagined. When we saw the final results, we were absolutely blown away — it felt like watching a beautiful movie about our love story."

Oleksandra & DanielMadeira · 2024
Celine and Joris, Netherlands Netherlands · 2025

"She quietly blends in and knows exactly how to capture the special moments. We were amazed by the spontaneous photos where we didn't even realize they were being captured. You can tell she truly does this work because she's good at it and loves it."
