Looking for big bellies

4 September 2010 I am gonna be the photographer of the first biggest group photo of pregnant bellies ever. Simavi & the 5th Milleniumgoal ask for our attention and we want people to sign the petition against mother's & baby's deaths.
The estafette will urge people to sign the petition and will tour tru NL for 4 weeks, starting in my hometown Breda. 52% of the people in the Netherlands already lives in a Millenium Town :) We need your help to get the worldleader's attention and reduce the deaths of pregnant women and newborn babies worldwide. You can also volunteer to join the groupphoto!

Breda Photo Festival

In Breda, my hometown, this year will be another Breda Photo Festival in Sept/Oct. Each time, next to really awsome exhibitions with worldfamous photographers, there's also an 'open studio route'. This time I am the organisor of it, and renamed it the Best in Breda weekend. Follow #BiB on Twitter! :)

The list of participating photographers is now complete, and I am very proud of it. Hopefully we'll be able to show you more soon, as from now all catalogues, brochures and more will be printed.

I also made a map in Google, with all locations, websites of the photographers and a photo of their work. ...Have fun browsing!

infraRED. Beautiful natural redheads posed for my 3rd photobook.

Natural redheads always fascinate me. They are about to be extinct some day in the future. I want to capture their beauty before they are.
Experiment: I used the infrared technique and eliminated all colour. Asking myself: will wreckles vanish? How pale will their skin get? What happens to 'red' in infra-red?

The first part of the book are the portraits in infraRED, turn the book upside down and compare the colour photos, same sequence.
