TITLE: Mother Nature's Daughters
This project is about nude in the natural environment. I usually work with black and white photography, preferably in my own country, the Netherlands. I use rugged landscapes, such as sand dunes, often in combination with dead wood, mudflats and salt marshes, beaches and forests. I will take pictures when there are beautiful skies with cumulus clouds or sheep clouds. I want to show contrasts between my models and the often hostile nature. This is enhanced by adding a red filter effect, making the blue skies dark. In this way I manage to work with all shades of gray between white and black, call this my signature on my photos. I use textures, shapes and composition, whereby I emphasize the contrast between model and environment.

NETHERLANDS
My base is a small town in the south west of the Netherlands.
Photography is my ruling passion.
After learning skills and tactics of photography all by myself, I followed some courses and workshops with some renowned photographers.
Source of my inspiration is nature.
Artists I admire and who inspire me, are Yurman, Demarchelier, Duong Quocdinh, Testino, Alas, Sylvestro. Certainly you may find the influence of these photographers in my landscape and human photographs.
My landscape photography I try consciously to reduce to work in the Netherlands.
Within my figure photography nature and landscape are very important. I try to put down a powerful but vulnerable human figure, as well in studio as in landscape itself. In both situations the organic idea is important, model must fit in natural surroundings.....
