HOW IT ALL STARTED

After I met a famous Dutch photographer in the winter of “95 in Davos Switzerland I got passionate about shooting pictures, so I decided to grab a camera and start making my own photos.

During three months in Switzerland this photographer taught me almost everything I needed to know to make my own expressive photos.

Back in Holland I became a member of the Dutch Fotobond.

I worked for several magazines and newspapers.

In 2005 I moved with my family to Switzerland.

HOW I BECAME A SPORTSPHOTOGRAPHER

The first couple of years i mostly shot still life and landscape pictures.

Every now and then i did a wedding shoot in between, but soon i realized that this kind of photography was not my cup of coffee.

During a holiday in France i went to see the Tour de France and took several pictures.
Made some good pictures there, and that was the moment that i realized that cyclingsports photography was what i really wanted to do.

In between i did some other sports also such as formel e, rally and ski jumping, but for me the one to go with is and stays cycling.
