The Last Season I, 2017

Harmen wanders the streets looking for extraordinary personalities who will pose for him. 'The Last Season I', is shot on the campsite in Hoek van Holland, where every year a few hundred Dutch people come together to celebrate the summer months. They are spending their golden years in this small paradise next to the North Sea. Once Harmen finds his subjects and builds a mutual trust with them, he then plans a production with a team of stylists to give these people the star treatment. Our society is all about being young and vital, so Harmen picks out older models, and he gives them the glamour and attention they deserve. It’s his mission to put these personalities on a pedestal using his camera and creative team. He usually focuses on people with a flamboyant character, and those who enjoy being in the spotlight. In all his images, he likes to exaggerate with the use of styling, selecting the locations, and glamorous lighting. It’s a celebration of growing older, being different, and not being afraid to stand out from the crowd.
