Zutphen
About

I'm a photographer from Zutphen, the Netherlands. I mostly shoot black and white film with a wide variety of very old cameras, each camera having its own characteristics and limitations. A process that demands patience and perseverance.

For a few years now I have been focussing on analog photography. It offers unique aesthetic qualities. Not the clinically sharp images I get from digital cameras. Instead grainy textures, soft focussed images and moody vignetting.

The camera, filmtype and developer - each a part of the choices I make to create a final print. A challenge and experience I hope you enjoy in my photographs.
