056 | The world champ.

#work
Honolua Blomfield’s Hawaiian roots run deep. She started surfing when she was two she claims and now 18 years later she shines as the Women’s World Champion longboard supported by O'Neill. We got in touch via Instagram and asked me if I could take lifestyle shots of her and hang out while being in Ericeira. Surfing wasn’t really an option as the waves were actually bigger than two-story buildings while Nazaré was firing further up north. We did get to see some amazing weaves rolling in and the sun. Hono is so easy and fun to work with,  a lovely person and amazing surfer.

054 | Fight for flight.

Bruce Lee moves in the evening sun. Having the pro’s in town put things in perspective. They make waves I thought were not worth riding look like marvels and drops that I thought were unmakeable they make me think twice. Living this year in Ericeira, Portugal, maybe in the most beautiful coastal town and full of surf, it is famous for her waves and in October 2011 they called it ‘a World Surfing Reserve when this was declared by the international organization Save the Waves Coalition. It was only the 2nd Reserve to be distinguished worldwide and remains the only one in Europe until today. Good waves attract great surfers and when they are around its beautiful to capture their dance.

052 | Brooks Running photoshoot.

#work
Four days of running to capture all the new styles of the 2019 Brooks Running Fall / Winter collection. Hugo Happel the directer picked Portugal as the location which is very convenient living in Ericeira, Portugal. A home game for me and Amy, lovely! The challenge was to capture the running shoes and apparel collection in totally different environments, from steep cliffs to clean architecture and ideal coastal towns. Brooks Running gaves us four days to shoot it with one travel day in between to changes locations between Lisbon and the beautiful island of flowers Madeira.Lots of running so fitness was key, for the crew and mostly for the run models, during a visit to the locations to scout the locations Hugo was ‘test running’ every potential locations, after the first day we decided that we had to take it a little easier as he already had ran 30km. During the shoot days the models ran 15km in average, short sprints and that for 4 days in combination while looking good. Though job and happy to be behing the camera shooting my new Canon 1D mark2, lovely.

050 | Strolling with Joolz around the world.

#work
I’ve been working with Joolz for a couple of years now which entails the most thoughtful and comfortable strollers you will ever see. It also entails patience, lots of it with the children who claim eighter more attention or they don’t want any attention from the stranger with the camera, me. Whatever the case is they always get tired and never do what you hoop them to do. Joolz rang me up told me about the new campaign and locations, the told me that we were going a long adventure documenting real families in the UK, Germany, Netherlands, the United States of America, Belgium and Spain. Adventure, yes, please! And just like that a couple of weeks later we took off with a small crew of three meeting them all somewhere on our beautiful globe. I only packed my hand luggage which is a backpack from F-stop containing my Canon 1Dm2, two lenses, laptop, hard drives for backup’s, headphones, card reader, a book of Captain Cook’s 3 voyages and bits and pieces of clothing. The thing I love the most about this project is that we got to hang out with an actual family which hasn’t always been the case and got to hang and took us to there favorite places and the city they know. Strolling with the baby stroller and a newborn usually a couple of months old which means a fresh mum. Other times one or two more kids usually craving for what every they demand. The scene in a nutshell; kids, parents, unfamiliar city, traffic, light situation and constantly changing, other humans around. It is a fun mission, getting the shots. So, fun to shoot and document with of course focus on the new strollers. Being patient is key and connect with the little ones but don't forget the parents and hats off for mothers.

045 | Faroe Islands with Nomad.

If you love dark and stormy you gotta go. North of Scotland and just south of Iceland you find a group of islands called the Faroe Islands ‘owned’ by the Danish but if you ask me it is a world on its own. Famous for their stubbornness on whaling habits, besides there is why more to these 17 islands floating in the middle of nowhere. It’s simply magical, barren lands, no trees around and so much space. Things have been the way as they’ve always have been when you look at photos and listen to the sounds while we were getting ourselves lost in the surroundings we met a not so happy man with his shepherd dogs. We happen to run over his land, not cool. The words of warnings quickly grew into a good chat and he told me that he is the 16th generation owning the valley and living on it. Things haven't changed much and that's where we came to shoot for Nomad. Martijn Andriessen was in charge of the photography and Hugo Happel and I were the ‘models’. Not bringing a camera wasn’t an option for me. Below some images of our trip and this amazing place.

043 | Photoshoot in London for Alfredo Gonzales.

#work
A new collection for our brand Alfredo Gonzales means fresh socks. All excited we made our way to London Town to shoot the new campaign. Styling Queen Nancy dragged a couple of bags full of styling essentials along to create the power of styling on the spot. There wasn't much of a plan besides browsing the streets, cause England can get wet Dennis Ebeli came up with the idea to get umbrellas made with the same pattern all the new socks.\

034 | Where is Alfredo Gonzales.

#work
With two campers we drove south to shoot the new campaign for our brand Alfredo Gonzales. On our way to the south of France we picked up someone that would because or now friend, Marissa Papen, who is killing it on Instagram and after we approached her immediately said yes to join a bunch of strangers in campers shooting their new sock collection. Road tripping’ is what we all love and so we blended the passion for the road and called the new campaign “Where is Alfredo”. The search was on to find the Mexican legend and shoot while searching. We heard rumors of him being in Paris and shot the Pencil collection meanwhile. When we got further south we focus on camping, hipster hikes, and surf. Two weeks and a lot of rain that the Basque country needs to feed the amazing green hills. Great vibes together with Ivo de Bruijn we shot the photos (below only my own images), Hugo Happel and Dennis Ebeli focused on the production of the shoot and the Art Direction and made sure we never lacked on coffee and burgers. Road trip video by Off The Richter. Great memories and images. And readers, know that I’m always ready for the road.

We, 11AM and I spent a crazy week sprinting around Barcelona shooting the 2015 Teva Campaign and filming the RTL4 TV bumpers for the next season of Expeditie Robinson. The shoot was a raging success, we had a great crew, typical sunny Spanish weather and we even managed to avoid the pickpockets. We spent a night in the ultimate treehouse and got to play in the Pyrenees.
