Press the pause button.

Seeing yourself in a photo and thinking: yes, that’s me. Even if you’d rather be behind the camera. A moment to be seen, without having to try. Just as you are.

Space for your plans and your doubts, or just to do nothing at all. You don’t need a reason. It’s your turn!

Join me in London
Michiel leaning on a windowsill, looking out of the window, by Anne van den Hoogen

Hello, I am Michiel

I only photograph people once I know their story.

After burning out I changed course completely: from company director to photographer. The street taught me to look without judging, and that is exactly what I bring to my studio in Wijchen. You may have seen me as the street photography expert on Het Perfecte Plaatje (RTL 4), or you hear me on the podcast 30 Minuten Sluitertijd.

How a PAUSE works

€ 495 incl. VAT · fifteen black and white photographs included

The conversation

Coffee or tea in the treehouse. Sometimes we talk for an hour, sometimes two. No agenda, nothing you have to deliver.

The quiet

Your head slowly goes still. Only once you are in the right place do I pick up my camera.

The portrait

Fifteen honest black and white photographs. The summary of our conversation.

Street photography masterclass in London

London masterclass

2 spots left

London is big, loud, and sometimes downright overwhelming. Which is precisely what makes it such a fantastic city to photograph. The city forces you to make choices: what do you leave out, where do you look, who do you follow with your eyes? Between the crowds on Oxford Street and the quiet side streets of Soho lies a world of images that most people simply walk past. Not you, not any more.

Two days of street photography · 20 and 21 November

“If you get the chance to work with Michiel, take it. Without a doubt.”Babette Venmans · ★★★★★ on Google

You deserve a pause.

Half a day for yourself, and a portrait that is genuinely right. Your therapist is more expensive.
