Happy New Year!
Flashes!!! I have always preferred natural light for studio photography, but on a tight schedule, I dont always have the possibility to wait around until the conditions are perfect, so i decided to dust off my to old Metz flashes (80′ies old) and get the cheapest umbrellas i could find. I plugged them into my Canon (5D MKII) (yes, with cables!!! I know… Infrared and radio-transmitters are basically the standard now, but i had the pc cables laying around from when i used to drag all this crap around to make some skateboard photos, and it works great)
So far im excited about the results. It works well… and you could probably get a similar setup for around 100-200 eur. The best part is that im able to plug them in, and even do a photoshoot at night, if i wanted.

Best time of the year. The water is still warm, and we get some small waves every now and then. I have found these photos of me on my 9.5 singlefin on the internet.

Graphic Design Festival Breda
October 23, 2012 - Posted in
I was very happy to be invited to do a lecture in Breda. Very creative workshops and good vibes. Check their website here

Welcome to Amsterdam airport.

Traveling by train (Amsterdam – Breda) was my fave part. Amazing open and flat landscapes.


I participated in a small exhibition about the relation between Graphic designers and their clients. I showed the process from the Duvel project.

Exhibition overview

I also found some time to kill at the Museum of graphic design. great place…

…found Wim Crouwels “famous” alphabet…

So, this was the place i had my lecture. Could you wish for a more epic setting?

Detail from the church. Actually, it the church had a pretty amazing story. Since it was a lutheran church (in a catholic area…do the math) it was totally hidden from the street….

The crime scene from one of the festival workshop. inspiring stuff…

Pressed melted crayons and some crazy roller-action.
