Capturing the moments that don't matter.

I am a photographer, artist and art & science teacher at primary schools in the Netherlands. My education as a fine art photographer was at the Royal Academy in The Hague. I shoot for 90% sooc with the Fujifilm x100v.

As of today I am the city photographer of Zaanstad.

The city photographer of Zaanstad (STADSFOTOGRAAF ZAANSTAD) uses visual poetry to raise awareness of the hidden and special stories, people, places and events in Zaanstad. I look forward to fulfilling this role for a period of two (and maybe even four years). I will give an artistic face to the municipality, its landscape, buildings and inhabitants.

I'm working on new series, but it doesn't really want to go smoothly. Perhaps the other - harsher - summer light will soon change that. Until then, some 'visual Haikus' (thank you Isabella!) with the Pluto Pro recipe.
