Before I became interested in photography, I had a career in the insurance industry.
After working in this industry for 23 years, I thought it was time to do something new.
In 2003 I set up my own travel organization and developed trips as a tour operator to
country’s in Southern Africa. I became fascinated by the colours, the views, the flora and fauna. This is how my passion for photography started. After some time I wanted to delve further into photography and attended the Photography School in Apeldoorn from 2007 to 2010, specializing in portrait photography. I also became interested in landscape, architecture and industrial photography and attended various master classes and workshops.
Light, shapes and color play an important role in my photography work.
Everything that radiates light attracts my attention. The challenge for me is to play with the different shapes, colors and light. I'm trying to do something special with this. My starting point is reality. I use different photographic techniques while photographing and in post-processing. I create a new reality, where color, shape and light coincide for me in a new creation and it corresponds to the emotion I feel.
