I photograph people. Their form, expression and life story pose endless possibilities of exploring emotion. It is with utmost respect that I approach my subjects and ask them to allow me to intrude on their personal space and document something authentic and unguarded. I feel that most of my images are reflections and facets of myself. In this process I aim to connect to other people and experience a wider, more universal humanity.

Major influences are old Dutch masters, as well as contemporary photographers like Robert Mapplethorpe and Erwin Olaf.
