One Hundred and Eleventh Collection


A simple, natural portrait of a young girl. Photographed in black and white, with focus on her direct gaze and facial details. A calm and honest image where minimalism speaks for itself.


This is Coosje, striking a pose at the stunning Heiterwangersee in Austria.
A few days after a photo coaching session, I took her out to practice. This was at 6 AM, chasing that soft morning light.
My husband? Less thrilled… he got pulled out of bed to come with us :)


This is the first self portrait I ever took. It's such an honor that this photo was chosen.
To me, it proves that everything is possible. At this point in my career I definitely did not think I would ever get an award. And now I did.
I'm proud of myself for working hard and proving myself wrong. I absolutely love this picture and I'm so happy it got an award!


Tommy my boy. Together with his brother George, My favorite photography victims.❤️
Only a few weeks in the house and boy do they bring joy and make the house feel alive again.
Cuteness overload!


There’s something so powerful in the calm of this moment. A baby resting gently on their mother’s shoulder, eyes full of curiosity, skin still soft and new. The warmth of touch, the silent bond. This image captures the quiet magic of early motherhood.

I had just opened my home-studio and this beautiful woman helped me by modeling for some test shots.


Mylo, een prachtige Britse korthaar kitten met een zachte grijs gestreepte vacht, zit trots en kalm op zijn krabpaal. Zijn grote, nieuwsgierige ogen kijken recht in de camera, alsof hij je gedachten probeert te lezen. De lichtval geeft de scène een dromerige sfeer. Het lijkt even alsof de tijd stilstaat. Zijn pluizige vacht vangt het zachte licht perfect, waardoor hij bijna koninklijk oogt. Een moment van rust, schoonheid en stille aandacht gevangen in één blik.


"Innocence in Focus" (puppy portrait)
In this portrait, I sought to capture the quiet dignity and purity often overlooked in animals. The puppy’s gaze is soft yet deliberate—an invitation to pause and connect beyond species, beyond noise. The black backdrop strips away distractions, allowing emotion and expression to take center stage.


Curious eyes and a graceful pose, there's a quiet wisdom and warmth that fills the frame.
More than just a photo — a portrait that captures a soul.
