I was 20 years old when I started to like photography. My first camera was a Minolta camera with 2 zoom lenses and a special macro lens. I have to say, I made nice images if I look back at old printed books and taken into account that Adobe Lightroom did not exist in those days.

​

It is the classic story, study, work and kids is not the best combination if you want to spend time on photography. Back in 2003, I bought my first Fuji digital compact camera. The camera was very small, but great to learn what digital technology could bring for my photography. A few years later, I decided to seriously pick up my hobby again and bought myself a real DSLR, the Nikon D90. 

​

I prefer to spend time in the outdoor. Getting out of bed early and enjoying the silence of nature slowly waking up is the time I love most. I have to honour to live in a beautiful part in the south of the Netherlands, close to a few National Parks. Together with the typical Dutch weather it is this combination that makes it great to be a landscape photographer.  

 

On this website I bring my work together. I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed making the image. My mantra is: "Bad weather is never an excuse not to go out, it is always good weather to take a picture"
