About me
I have always been fascinated by the beauty of nature. I made my first big journey in my early twenties. From that moment on, traveling became my passion, as well as photographing nature and wildlife. I am specialized in travel and nature photography and well-known for my close encounters with wildlife. I’ve travelled to the farthest places on earth and visited fascinating deserts, jungles, volcanoes and mountains. I strive to perfectly capture a scene, making the viewers of the photo feel like they were actually there with me. Many of my photos were published and I was a finalist and/or winner of several international contests. National Geographic, Animal Planet Wildlife Photo Contest, WWF, Thomas Cooke, GetAway, Columbus, Natuurpunt and so on.
