ABOUT ME
|
Nature photography has always been in my blood, mainly because of my father who has always been passionated about nature and birds in particular. I remember the time when I was impressed by his sharp pictures of birds with his 600mm zoomlens, I called it 'the bazooka'... As a teenager I received a second hand Minolta reflex-camera and I tried to shoot birds aswell but the range of my lenses was rather disappointing and with the beginning of the digital revolution the camera ended up in a dusty corner of my room. In the year 2010 I started following a course digital photography at Syntra Ghent for starters and for advanced afterwards. This to get used to the basics of (digital) photography. Teacher at that time was Lukas Roels. Inspired by Lukas, people took up an increasingly prominent place in my photographs. With 3 doughters running around in my house this is a rather fulfilling subject. Lukas trademark is the use of available (day)light. As a principle, I also never use a flash. Writing with light, that's what is photography all about, delivers attractive pictures. My interest and passion for photography has only grown since I purchased my first digital reflex camera. I keep challenging myself by following workshops and pushing the limits. I try to capture what I see and feel in a natural way. There is nothing more fulfilling to me than coming home with raw images after an inspiring day and to develop them to a beautiful collection of images. With this site I can share a part of this feeling with anyone who wants it...
