EDUCATION

I have studied fashion design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Maastricht and worked as an international hair & make up artist for 12 years, before I became a fashion & beauty photographer. 


PHILOSOPHY

I am very passionate about my job and love to create beautiful imagery that have an uplifting, and sensual feeling. I especially enjoy shooting in natural settings. My photographs are the result of good teamwork and beautiful ingredients.
