About Gerben Oosterink

It drove me crazy. There was dad again with his camera, whether it was photo or video. And I don't think I was the only one who felt that way, which is probably why there's still an 'allergy' to it when a camera is in front of me.

And now, years later, I'm doing it myself... With a passion for portraits. So, it's my duty to dispel that 'allergy' as soon as you come to me for a shoot. The most beautiful moments come when there is emotion, which can be joy but also sadness, shyness, or passion. Just take a look at 'Stories', then we'll understand each other for sure :)

I want to capture the moment, so not too much draping and orchestrating. Preferably as natural as possible, in other words, when you're yourself. So come on, together we'll create a beautiful photoshoot.

I'm a loyal Canon customer, and love my full-frame camera: 6D Mark II. In the studio, I like to work with 1 light source, but outdoors, I prefer to let the natural charm of daylight illuminate my portraits.
