and the winner of the Spring Portrait Session in The Hague is…
Thank you so much to everyone that entered the prize draw to win a fabulous Spring Portrait Session in The Hague with Tigs Creations. I asked you to tell me at least ONE thing you love about The Hague, and your answers were an absolute delight to read. I’m going to share a few that caught my eye…
“I love the Keizerstraat on Saturdays! It is like a little village full of lovely people.” – K
“This spring I discovered the Frederikstraat while on my way to a childbirth preparation class. I love the shops and the restaurants, and I want to shop in every shop I’ve seen! It’s utterly charming.” – J
“I love this all-in-one package in the Hague: you have a city for going-out and shopping and the beach and the dunes to enjoy the nature.” – J
“What I do love about The Hague is, well, love! My fiancé lives there, so for three years, I’ve been spending my weekends and the odd month here and there at The Hague and surroundings. He’s taken me sightseeing, we’ve spent hours walking at the beach, and I regularly request he takes me to the big vegetable market on saturdays.” – E
“The atmosphere, the old city look, there is much green in this city.” – F
Many of you also mentioned the international feel, the blend of cultures and ethnic diversity, foods from all around the world, the cycling lifestyle and the simplicity of living here. I’m in agreement with all of you; I love living in The Hague! :-)
So, who won the Spring Portrait Session…..?!
Congratulations to Mariam Raafat!
Mariam has been living in The Hague for less than a year and loves that people from all over are living here.
Mariam, i’m very much looking forward to working with you and meeting your family. Please send me a note to claim your fabulous Spring Portrait Session and a CD of all your images!
Thank you again to all of you that entered the prize draw! :-)
Best wishes,
~Natalie

win a fabulous Spring portrait session in The Hague
Yesterday was the fifth annual Feel at Home in The Hague fair which took place in the atrium of the City Hall. It was a buzz of activity! Lots of familiar faces, and many new – including expats that had arrived in The Hague only a few short weeks ago. The fair is an absolute goldmine of information for new arrivals so i’m sure their bags were overflowing with information!
Here’s me at the start of the day – wearing a fabulous new top that DHL delivered just the day before, perfect timing! I’m so glad DHL deliver on Saturdays! :-) Thanks to Neal McClimon who was manning the ADO Den Haag stand for the quick snap with my little cam :-)

A Christmas Prize Draw Winner!
With thanks to Erika at Both Assistance and Support I was not only introduced to CONNECTing Women (a network for professional and internationally aware women, based in The Hague) but I also had a table at their December meeting which was a Festive Network Bazaar.
It was a great evening, and a wonderful opportunity to meet the members, buy Christmas gifts and find out a bit about each of the businesses that had a table there.
And on my table… which was overflowing with photographs… I held a special Christmas Prize Draw to win a portrait session with tigs creations photography. And the winner….
Many congratulations to Santina Hovanessian! You’ve won a portrait session in your home, or at a location of your choice for lifestyle or studio portraits. This includes one to three hours of session time (including set-up and outfit changes), custom editing of each individual image and a 4 week private online gallery of 25-30 proofs. You will also receive two complimentary 13x19cm prints of your choice.
*look out for my email with more details*
Ooops! I didn’t know the background wall would be green! lol I totally chose the wrong colour jumper! haha!
