I am a Director of Photography (DoP) and portrait photographer based in The Hague, The Netherlands.

“…Cinematic narrative-driven leadership portraits that build trust, visibility & executive presence. Signature style? Often with a highly staged aesthetic and distinctive lighting style.”

My work values the beauty of difference while amplifying the connections that bring us together. I specialize in crafting living, contemporary portraits using cinematic visual storytelling, often with a highly staged aesthetic and distinctive lighting style.

Corporate & documentary visual storytelling photography.

I focus on the people behind the ‘organizational framework’: the quiet motivations behind loud ambitions and the personal within the professional. I'm drawn to the intersection where individual stories meet larger movements, where a scientist, an artist, or a teacher holds both personal struggles and the wider concerns of their field.

Meaningful work begins with meaningful questions.

What do we overlook? What matters but remains unspoken? Whether I’m creating an intimate portrait, a powerful documentary, or a compelling visual narrative for an organization, I seek stories that connect personal experience to urgent societal themes. My goal is to remind us that behind every system and institution are people with hopes, fears, and dilemmas as real as our own.

My professional journey.

I hold a BA in Photography from the University of the Arts, The Hague. My education has also come from the people I’ve listened to and portrayed. I have worked as a documentary photographer for Amnesty International, traveling worldwide to capture often-overlooked struggles for human rights. My skills were further refined at the London Film School and at Fabrica, the Benetton Group’s communications research centre, where mentorship from Oliviero Toscani deepened my understanding of visual storytelling and its power to move people.

Trusted by leading organisations.

Over the years, I have worked with organizations that navigate complexity and change. Including:

ASML, Amnesty International, De Volkskrant,Dutch Design Week, National Association for Education and Epilepsy, National Portrait Gallery. London. UK., Lifestyle4Health, TNO & LUMC, Stibbe Lawyers,Tate & Lyle Netherlands, EHA (European Hematology Association), TU Delft – Career & Counselling Services, TU Delft – Honours Programme, TU Delft – Study Climate Program

“A portrait quietly shapes how we are perceived, cultivates a fragile trust, and distills the subtle art of leadership into a single image. His work speaks to those who move the world forward: the innovators, the visionaries, and the changemakers who navigate complexity with both courage and grace.”
