Ruby didn’t need to do much. Just be- calm, loyal, and full of quiet wisdom. The kind of presence that stays with you.

Met Dayenka during a masterclass in portrait photography. Coincidentally, she was recently in the area and stopped by for a shoot with masks. The beautiful handmade crown also had to be used, and with the light background and my favorite lighting setup, this stunning fine art photo was created.

Beautyfull dalmation dog Nora

Nice to see how some individuals are a true natural when it comes to taking photos. This girl was one of them. I was able to take Wonderful portraits of her.

He doesn’t rise by the rules they wrote.
Not because he lacks,
but because he leads with something softer.

The system favors speed, sameness, surface.
But he moves by depth, care, and quiet insight —
qualities the world often overlooks,
especially in the halls of learning.

Still, there’s a wisdom in him that unfolds slowly,
like light at dusk —
subtle, but certain.
Unmeasured, but true.

And perhaps that’s the kind of brilliance
we need to make space for.

Maria Eduarda was one of my first photo shoots in the United States. A park with beautiful sunsets and abundant colors that match the joy of this charming girl.

I took this portrait during one of my 'Portretjesdagen'. This little one did such a great job; full of personality and patience!

Dieke en Roxy during a snowy day in The Netherlands. This is also one of my favorite shoots I've done so far. Especially because we don't get that many snowy days in The Netherlands. Doesn't she look like a snow princess?

@savthornhill such a pretty boy with a pure soul

In the background an old Dutch landscape from an old Dutch master. In a time when nobility really stood above the common citizens. The models could handle this role. Fortunately just for a short period.
