About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm 25 years old, and I adore photography, blogging and film. I studied New Media at Ghent University, worked at a Dutch startup called Blendle and I'm currently working at the creative agency DIFT. I love to meet new people who are interesting and know a lot about art and the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to work with a real DSLR-camera. Aperture, ISO, shutter... Photography is the language that I speak, and after sleeping at my place, you'll be infected by the photo-virus as well :) I can also take you on a trip to the magical world of (Spanish) cinema. I adore the films made by Almodavar, Amenabar, Medem... Being a real Belgian, I know the best spots to eat some great French/Belgium fries and to drink some (local) beers!
