I remember when I turned sixteen. I felt like I had to grow up and become responsible. When I turned 18 I was pretty scared about getting my drivers lisence and going to college. Can’t believe that’s already two years ago. Today I turn 20. No biggie. What I expect from this year? I expect it to be awesome. I expect to start photography classes and grow this crazy hobby into a more professional thing. I expect to fly across the pond and have an amazing time exploring America. I expect to meet new friends, maybe even through this blog. I expect this blog to grow and to become an even bigger part of my life. But my sixteen year old self already knew that not everything lays in your hands.
I haven’t planned to celebrate this event big time. But my friend J and I did go out for a special birthday shoot over the weekend. I have an overload of photos to share today so I hope you enjoy them!

Oh what beautiful looking birthday weather you had. Those clouds and over all atmosphere of your photos along with those totally awesome tights make the pictures incredibly beautiful! Hope the rest of your week is filled with lots of love and fun! 🙂
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I'm so thrilled that you made so many wonderful plans and goals and I hope you can accomplish them all.
Also you look so lovely. And that stormy field is so romantic like something out of a Jane Austen novel.

Happy Late birthday!
I turned 21 this year and it was nuts. Not nuts because I was on-the-floor-wasted, but nuts because I feel like time is going way too quickly and deep down I am just an old woman haha. It's to weird to remember how it seems like just a little bit ago I was also turning 16.
Time flys, I guess they say 😉
I love the neutral palette! that dress is beautiful!
and Happy Birthday!:) I'm excited to be 20 as well!
Supermooie foto's! Gelukkig heb je eventjes geen regen gehad dan^^ xx
Kind of late, but.. Happy Birthday!
Aw, happy belated birthday!! And these photos are stunning… as is your outfit. I adore the lace and those tights are perfect with it. xo
Wauw, wat een prachtige foto's! Fijne wensen heb je voor je 20ste levensjaar. En nog een fijne verjaardag natuurlijk (al kom ik daar wel errrrg laat mee)
woow supermooie outfit! staat je echt heel goed!
