Als fotograaf weet je nooit of, waar en hoe je werk gepubliceerd wordt.

Hier werd een foto van mij valselijk van mijn website gestolen, en gebruikt in een extreem-rechtse Poolse Facebook-post over de Pride-parade in Polen. Gelukkig hebben mensen van Demagog het beeld als Fake betiteld en door FB late...

Yes, I panicked. How to stay alive during Covid as a small entrepeneur/photographer.I started photographing families in Brussels. Just as a mental support to them, and to maybe earn a little cash. Most important: this was a great way to get on the road, see people, although from a distance. I just n...

Covid Quarantaine? Working from home?

So if you would like outdoor portraits, studio portraits, or even portraits at your office? During the pandemic I can still shoot portraits for B to B assignments, and only if it's really important. We're both risking to get infected. But with a good preparation a portrait can be done safely., from ...

studio light is magic

individual portraits in the studio take more time and effort, but the photographer can really make light settings he could never do anywhere else.

hands on in the studio

These few months I opened up the possibility to clients all over Belgium to come to my studio and have a photoshoot for almost nothing. They won their shoot on vivabid, and have the right to be photographed in the studio for about half an hour and get one download for free.


 All other images can...

group photography at your office

After doing official headshots of all co-works all morning, I was asked to do an extra. A group portrait of the crew. But as this wasn't foreseen I really had to improvise, and there was not a lot of room. I just took there conference room, moved the tables around, and hop!  I like the fact tha...

Test shoot

For a client we did a funny group shot. This pic is just a trial, and the real photo you will find in magazines, with some politicians claiming diversity. Hence the bags. I always first shoot with co-worker models, so, when the high profile models/politicians come everything is prepared so we won't ...

For the Finnish Journal of Foreign Affairs I was assigned to photograph EU Commissioner mrs. Margrethe Vestager. It made me really happy because it was the 3rd time I could meet her, and she's just really very sympathetic. She also is one of the rare Commissioners that  decorated her room ...

As a photographer I used to be happy to work for Corbis. Bill Gates' own personal agency (he loves photography) now is sold to the Chinese, and the footage will be available through Getty. Demotix, the website for freelance reports, sold to Corbis just a few years ago, now is totally vanished...
