about me
After graduating from the art academy, St. Joost, with a focus on photography, I have always been active as a photographer. I think working autonomously is one of the most beautiful things there is. In addition, I work on commission for various clients, commercial but also editorial. I worked for VICE Magazine, but I sometimes photograph for VK Magazine, for example. I usually work out pitched topics for those kinds of magazines together with writer friends.
At the moment I am also working on an autobiographical documentary about my past, present and future. I will have intimate conversations with my family, a therapist and train intensively for the NK Pole Dancing in June. Before I started the project, I couldn't pole dance. So it's a big challenge for me.
Through the film I try to find out how I stand in life and why.
