Portraits

I love photography. And most of all, portraits. If you’d ask 3 photographers to make a portrait of the same person, the result will be totally different. Although the subject is the same, there is so much room for a personal touch. It’s all about the light, the atmosphere, the face, the assets, smoke, background, …

My favourite portrait photographer at the moment is Belgian photographer Stephan Vanfleteren. His portraits are really amazing imo. Good friend of mine, Thomas Vanhaute has great portraits as well, check out this beautiful portraits of Stanny Crets, Yasmine and many, many more. Photos like these inspire me so much to experiment myself with light, settings, etc. I want to officially declare this new year as the “I-want-to-make-portraits” – year :) Here are some of my older portrait experiments.

Le Crotoy

I went to Le Crotoy (France) this weekend to relax and take some pictures. Le Crotoy is a quiet, beautiful town on the West-Coast of France. It’s on the North-side of a very special bay that changes with the tides. You can walk from one side to the other during the ebb tide (with a guide), but make sure to get out on high water :) Compare the satellite images and map on Google and check out my pictures on flickr.

If you’re going some day, let me know if you see this man too ;)

QuadCamera, Lomo fun on your iPhone

quadcamera

QuadCamera is the 4th camera-app by Art&Mobile. This is their best app, imo. It’s inspired by the Lomo Oktomat and loads of fun fun fun!

UPDATE: Some first experiments. Best app ever!

Richard Avedon

In my opinion, one of the best photographers of the last century (who I know ofcourse). Be sure to check out the website or one of these exhibitions: Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, SF.
