During one of the ‘Goth’ shoots. We did not think this was very ‘Goth’ perhaps but I really like this photo. Laura’s make up looks so beautiful on her!

This photo does not really promote the dress i designed, but i really love it and Sumchog looks beautiful here!

Laura, Zamira and i worked together on a shoot for Comic Sexy. And here we just had a break. Could not stop making pictures and made the best pic of the day with Zamira choosing a drink and a bite from the menu.

This was a mistake with the lighting and the focussing when we were shooting for The Identity Machinery. I can’t use this picture for anything but i really like the colour combinations and the unsharp girl in the front. it has a certain ‘lynchian’ quality that i probably could not get had i aimed for it.

Laura posed for my painting ‘Silence’ – and in between the ‘official’ shots i made this picture. She is waiting for instructions and the idea was to capture the moment she opens her eyes, for that spontaneous ‘shine’ in the eyes. Just clicked early.

Laura during one of our many photo sessions. Can’t use this picture for anything but i really love the accidental movement here. How did i even do this? She was not moving, that’s for sure!

One of those unexpected beauties. Laura is just going to the mirror to adjust her make up during the shoot for ‘Eleven’ in the series ‘Everything Must Go’, and i happen to see the moment and click.

Laetitia posed for me when i drew the ‘space girl’ in the series ‘Everything Must Go’. Sha had a fish bowl in front of her face to get an understanding of the breaking of light and the reflection in spherical glass. The globe-light in the background finishes the photo.

This is a picture of Laura who did the make up for Loes during a shoot for Comic Sexy. She waits in Loes’ car, we’re about to go to the next location. I thought this picture was great because it looks so glamorous, while Loes her car is an old cheap thing and we are at one of the least glamorous locations in Amsterdam.

This is Fred Krijger, silk printer. He is working on the cover for Amsterdam Klezmer Band’s ‘Fortuna’ on vinyl and i shot this pic in between filming the proces.

This is a picture of my friend Fraser: i really love this one: he is at the opening of his own art show in Amsterdam. You can see how hard he works and that he made his deadlines ‘just in time’, and the combination of relief, recognition and exhaustion makes this a really good picture, i think.

Sometimes you make the best work without the intention to do so. I made lots of ‘inbetweenies’ – snapshots in which a model is preparing or the subject is inbetween two actions that are not useful for anything but provide great images. Here is Laura acting as Luna Lovewitch for a shoot for The Identity Machinery. I just love this picture.

Sometimes people at work are just in too beuatiful a situation. A model in a car, a silk printer checking his screens, an artist deadly tired after designing his art show and now at the end of his opening event…
