My work is a blend of photo and videography,
art direction, and my deep-rooted
background in fashion.
By approaching avant-garde artists with an
anthropological lens, I capture their essence and
translate it into powerful (moving) images,
branding concepts and fashion ideas.
From Medical School to Fashion School
My journey has always been fueled by a love for self-expression and an admiration for those who dare to live boldly. From a young age, I followed my own rhythm, choosing paths that defied expectations. Despite of the expectations to go to medical school I followed my passion and studied Fashion and Design at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute (AMFI). Some saw it as throwing away potential, but to me, it was the only way forward.
Styling & Photography
After completing my BA at AMFI, I worked as a stylist for V Magazine in New York City opened new doors. I discovered my love for the fast-paced, creative energy of a photoshoot. Back in Amsterdam I started working as a stylist at G-Star and doing photography in the Amsterdam nightlife scene. It was at one of these festivals that I crossed paths with Raymond van Mill, the photo editor at Vice. His suggestion to shoot for Vice was a dream come true, and within weeks, I was capturing my first series, βMy NYC,β for the magazine.
I create visuals, iconic ones...
-
Documentary
Preserving the essence of a moment in time.
-
Portraits
In my studio or on location. Shot digitally or analog.
-
Branding
A story told through imagery.
-
Creative
The sky the limit. From costume design, to organizing and curating exhibitions anything is possible...
Social impact & Activism
After two years of freelancing as a photographer and stylist, I reached another crossroads. While I loved the creative freedom, I knew I needed to expand my horizons. I returned to school, earning a Masterβs in Cultural Economics and Entrepreneurship from Erasmus University. This chapter sparked a new interest in activism and social impact. As a board member of Native Agency, I worked to create opportunities for underrepresented photojournalists by collaborating with renowned platforms like Vogue, World Press Photo, and Visura.
Multi-Passionate Creative
I continued to explore new roles, working as an art director for Nachtlab Agency, curating an exhibition for Museumnacht Amsterdam at Sexyland World, and even designing an art installation for Mark it Down and ID&T. In 2022 joined Studio HER, a collective and agency supporting female and non-binary filmmakers.
Today my work is not only about creating striking visuals, but also about empowering voices, driving change, and telling stories that matter.
