Dockyard ADE
Dockyard was one of the many things to do during the Amsterdam Dance Event. My mission on this day was to take shots of the stages and the lightning technology.
Caught between water and land, between the brick warehouses and slipways. The old iron and concrete of the dockyard radiates a sturdy yet derelict character; raw and full of energy. Dockyard festival springs from the seeds spread from the surrounding ageing materials that express the netherland’s industrial heritage. The sawing, drilling and hammering of the past are replaced with the beats of the djs that punch through the air this ADE. The sound of ships sledded from the slopes under loud cheering now become music and cheering voices of the audience as they dance and become a part of dockyard’s futuristic dystopia.” - Dockyard

Cinekid 2016 for IMC Weekendschool
Located in Amsterdam, Cinekid is the world’s largest media festival for children. Every year more than 50.000 children are given the opportunity to visit over 500 media productions selected by the festival: feature films, children’s documentaries, short films, animations, television series and single productions, cross media productions, interactive installations and set-ups as well as workshops.
I was on site for two groups from the IMC Weekendschool. Their second-year students had been working on documentaries to show at the festival while the third-year students had been preparing for a fierce debate. Both groups got to enter the 'medialab' afterwards. Here they could experience a lot of new media including virtual reality. How cool!
Portait #2 - Roos
Roos is an longtime friend who wanted a few new portrait pictures for a while now. Since I had a Canon 85mm f/1.2L II USM at my disposal we scheduled a meet. We took to a location near the IJ in Amsterdam. It was pretty windy but letting the wind play with her hair made a few playful shots.
We found a little square close by with a a little less wind where we tried a few other shots. Another fun day shooting.
Exploring NDSM #1
NDSM is a decommissioned shipyard in the north part of the city. The remnants of this previous function are all over the place which makes it a great place for photographers. I did some reconnaissance with fellow photographers Thomas Korver and Jeroen Degekamp.
Capturing the city of London
London is a wondrous city filled with street artists, street art, impressive tall buildings and cute markets. I've been there a few times already and it never dissappoints. I love the diversity amongst the people, the way the old and new city blend together and the interaction of people in the streets.
The few days I had didn't even come close to being enough to see everything; especially when travelling by foot. I can't wait till next time!
Shootin' in the sand
This series of portrets was shot at a large patch of sand in the middle of the woods near Nunspeet. With the sun providing nice natural light during the sunset we had a lot of fun looking for the right shots.
Winters Amsterdam
Het leek een zachte winter te gaan worden totdat in het eerste weekend van februari 2021 de kou over het land trok en het landschap wit kleurde. Ook Amsterdam was bedekt met een witte deken; iets wat we steeds minder meemaken en zodoende meer dan genoeg reden voor een winterse wandeling met de camera om de stad vast te leggen op de gevoelige plaat.
Family #1
For this little trip we went to a small village in Limburg close to Schin op Geul. This area is one of the only with hills in the Netherlands. A beautiful place to be; especially in the summer.
Mama Kenia #1 - 180 Amsterdammers
Elizabeth Njeru heeft voor ogen om Keniaans eten hier in Nederland net zo vanzelfsprekend te maken als Chinees of Thais. Een stukje cultuur verspreiden en mensen door middel van eten dichter bij elkaar brengen.
Voor de opening van de expo "180 Amsterdammers" in de OBA verzorgde zij de catering. Hier waren wij kort bij om wat foto's te maken.
