ABOUT ME

I was born in 1982 in Roosendaal, The Netherlands. My passion: Photography. I started practicing photography as a persistent youngster, when I got introduced in the surreal world of photographers as Ed van der Elsken, Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa. Inspired by these grandmasters, I recorded many friends on film, thanks to my analog, almost antique Minolta camera. Encouraged by my environment, I started a Fine Arts study at Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam, but soon changed to The Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague to dedicate my life to the camera by starting a study ‘Photography’. After graduation I started traveling all over the world, accompanied by my camera and a backpack. Later I started a parttime study at Fontys School of Arts in Tilburg, to become a teacher in Fine Arts. I'm currently working as a freelance photographer.
