As a fine art photographer, I capture the ethereal essence of nature through my lens. Born and raised in the Netherlands within a family deeply rooted in the flower bulb cultivation, which developed my deep appreciation for nature's beauty from an early age. In my formative years, I found myself behind the camera, photographing exquisite imagery for my family’s catalogues. However, I embarked on a different path, pursuing a career as a buyer for the renowned departmentstore 'De Bijenkorf'. Yet, my heart yearned for more artistic expression. Following my passion, I delved into a study of garden- and landscape design, which I have practiced with great pleasure for many years. Finally, fuelled by my unwavering love for photography, I returned to my craft, capturing the true splendor of nature and sharing their awe-inspiring beauty with the world. "My primary aim is to bridge the gap between the people and nature"
