It is super hard to judge your own work. That’s why I decided to enter the Portrait Master competition with 3 of my photos, just to see what would happen. Every photo gets judged by a panel of 5 international award winning photographers, who have made a name in the portrait business. I am super proud to announce to you all that all 3 pictures I have sent in, received bronze score! Yay!
The city center of Rotterdam is an unique mix between super modern and gorgeous old architecture. We decided that this would be the perfect place for the loveshoot of Dennis & Irma! After walking around for a bit, we found a beautiful spot: Blaak House. This building has so many amazing details! This would be a key location for the engagement shoot.
Working with other ambitious people really is amazing. You’re both driven to make the most beautiful photographs during the test shoot. But when it’s your model’s first shoot… It’s a super fun challenge to bring out the best in them! And when it’s a guy with a gorgeous jawline and razorsharp cheekbones… Super exciting!
I recently had the opportunity to work with Sophie, a very talented new model and competitive figure skater. She has such a stunning and unique look that I couldn’t help but capture her in a beauty shoot.
