My commissioned photography

There are as many types of photography as there are clothing brands. My interest lies in photography that tells a story or lets you make up a story. You quickly talk about behind-the-scenes, reportage or documentary photography.

Like street photography, these are forms of photography where the subject prefers not to be photographed. "Life is what happens while you are making other plans", and in behind-the-scenes, reportage or documentary photography, this is the kind of photography where the subject is engaged in his or her passion in his or her natural environment (work/private/hobby). Capturing craft or job satisfaction is an integral part of this.

My photography style

My biggest flaw is my greatest strength: I don't like too posed, or too edited. I love capturing you or your company / corporate event such as it is.

And I'm mainly talking about capturing the fun between employees or visitors, their passion or determination. The relaxation between business or that moment for coffee. All work is people work and capturing those people is my biggest motivation.

Business portraits & corporate photography

Behind-the-scenes photography assignments combine seamlessly with business portraits / corporate photography. I usually use early morning time, when the light is at its best, to photograph you and your colleagues (headshots). By the time we are done with that, nobody cares that there is a strange little man running through the building taking pictures of everything. It's the perfect combination.

Of course, I am happy to bring my mobile studio. It depends entirely on the type of portraits you want to use. It can be from relaxed in natural light by that one beautiful north-facing window, or stylised with one or more lamps and a nice plain back wall. Here are some examples!

Photography for your website

Behind-the-scenes of BTS photography is ideally suited for companies looking for content for their website or social media content.

  • Promotional (seasonal, or to promote a new product)
  • Informative (to accompany a press release or internal piece)
  • Office life (sneak peek, makes human)
  • Production process (this is how we make what you use)

By walking behind-the-scenes in your company and not just taking posed photos, it captures what happens on a day in your organisation. Of course, this kind of behind-the-scenes content is also great for social media.

After the portraits, everyone can just go back to work and I keep photographing. That one colleague by the filing cabinet, or the bench worker by the machine. It doesn't matter what kind of company you have. Together, we create fresh images for your website or social media, for your brochure or business card.

By working that way, I'm sure we can create a good, positive representation of your company without making your colleagues or employees feel terribly embarrassed.
