Thank you for stopping by. I see myself as a dreamer and nomad at heart. I never really planned to become a photographer. My interest for photography grew from an incessant thirst for discovering new places and cultures. The beautiful complexity between people, emotions and places always fascinated me. Although I grew up in Belgium, I moved to Australia in 2007 and today I feel very lucky to call Katoomba my home with my wife Nastia who is a mural artist, our gorgeous daughter Mia and our cat Frida. As my relatives all live in Belgium, we take this opportunity to regularly travel to Europe during summer time to see them and also photograph a limited number of destination weddings. I love that weddings allow me to have a peek into people’s life for one day. I find it incredibly rewarding to be trusted to tell people's story on one of the most important days of their life. My work can be described as raw, cinematic, emotive and timeless. When documenting people's stories, I like to take the back seat and play the role of a quiet observer. Light is the core of my work and I am always up for experimenting with it in an intentional and artful way. All my photography packages include 35 mm film coverage as I love how film helps me to capture images in a more intentional way and I find the analog process very meditative. It pushes my creative boundaries and the beautiful imperfections of film suit the timeless nature of my work. Alongside weddings I also shoot elopements and after recently becoming a dad myself I started taking bookings for short family sessions in the Blue Mountains.
