What an edition again! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a houseparty go this mental as was the case with David Guetta’s performance. Even though I’m not the biggest fan of his music, his crowd interaction will give me goosebumps for quite some time to come. In my opinion Tomorrowland is certainly one of the best parties of the year with a great atmosphere, relaxed people, amazing stages and a simply well though out event.
An interior shoot for Tulp Magazine (December 2009 issue) took me to the high-profile Noordeinde street in Den Haag. The owners of Byron&Jones and Chivasso have an amazing, 33 room, house in the center of the city which they completely redecorate every few years. What a pleasure to photograph!

Qlimax is an annual hardstyle event, held at the Gelredome, in Arnhem, Netherlands. As always there was an amzing stage so tons of fun shooting this very long night.
Line-up: A-lusion, Brennan Heart, D-Block & S-te-Fan, Deepack, Headhunterz, Isaac, Noisecontrollers, Technoboy, Noize Suppressor and hosted by MC Ruffian.
Landing on a tiny mountain lake with a floatplane is a fantastic experience wherever you are. But in this weather and in one of the most stunning places on earth: Tofino, Vancouver Island, it was simply and totally unforgettable. More on this trip for ANWB REIZEN Magazine very soon.
Many thanks go out to Tofino Air for making this one hour flight possible.
Filmed with the Canon 5DmkII Video function, so click HD for extra quality.
Zwan – Échte momenten, échte Zwan or Real moments, Real Zwan (sausages) is the name of the new campaign for these TV-snacks. I was asked to tag along for a day while they were shooting the new and very high tech commercial (just watch the making off on the website).
High speed flying saucers sausages.

“Julie”
The photo’s were meant for the new website and the facebook characters, Julie and Alex, that are a integral part of the campaign. Also, one image made it to the print campaign and has probably been all over Belgium by now.
I’m very happy with the new Duikamagzine (Dive Magazine) that just came out, a four page article on one of my favorite subjects of 2008: the Turtle beach at Ras al Jinz (check here for an earlier article on this website in English ).
Because of doing a two and a half week diving report on Croatia for Duikmagazine it has been a little quiet on the updating of this website. And as there is a lot of travel coming in the next few months I will probably have this problem for a while.
For a change a small photo series on just one particular dive: the famous Blue Hole. No, not the one in Dahab (Egypt) which is literally a killerdive (dozens of people have died there while trying to outsmart common sense while scuba-diving) but a actually much nicer one located on the island Korčula. Located roughly three hours by ferry from Split this very nice island hosts some of the best diving of the region. With over twenty dive-sites to choose from we just barely scratched the surface with our three days of diving but one site really stood out: the hole…
It’s actually not just the hole itself with it’s cathedral-like lighting but also the massive and highly untouched soft gorgonians that are to be found around the hole at 35+ meters of depth. Massive pink giants that are most photographers favorites!
Well, just enjoy the photo’s and make sure to get in contact with Croatia Divers when doing some bubble-blowing over there!
Images from a very long night (17:00 till 07:00): the 2009 edition of Q-Base at Airport Weeze. A supernice old millitary airport with plenty of old bunkers and hangars that serves as the backdrop for this yearly hardhouse festival.
Some concert images for a change. I’m normally not too much into band-photography but these guys should be an exception: Kyteman Hip Hop Orchestra! Literally, because it’s quite hard to get a decent photo of them with incredible poor lighting on stage and the whole lot of them running all over the place. Shot some extra pics and managed to get a few nice captures, please enjoy them. All are uploaded in large size so they’re pretty much ready to go for your desktop wallpaper.
