My Work/ Gear/ Sales
I always work on my compositions. My approach is mindful & I strive to create work that is clear and uncompromising.
I'm not the guy who shoots pictures in the same style all the time. (A legacy from many years of advertising and fashion photography)
However, I always try to have a tone & rythm in my photographs. Good photography is like music. Tells a story and offers comfort or well-being.
Maybe this is my style?
I shoot with a variety of cameras ranging from the Ricoh GR series to full-frame Nikon. I have a lifelong love affair with Nikons since the 70-ties.
My recent love affair are my Fujifilm GFX 50SII medium format camera.
All pictures are for sale. Just contact me below with your inquires.
Mentoring/ Lectures/ Private Sittings
I have an extensive knowledge in photography. Both technical, lighting, but also composition & content awareness. Over the years I've also learned a thing or two about the psychology of taking pictures of people. Both models and people in general.
My mentorship is aimed for the photographer who has some basic technical knowledge in photography.
Contact me below for mentoring. I'm sure we can figure something out!
I also have my lecture called "My photographic life - So far" which is a presentation in speech and picture showing. Duration 1 hour.
I am open for private portrait sessions. You won't get the typical boring portrait from me. I don't use fixed methods. You be suprised..
