Hans-Peter van Velthoven

Bandwissel bij #vanderweerdenautobanden Beuningen

// H A N S P E T E R V A N V E L T H O V E N @hpvv / // 6th May 2026 // T H E H U B O N V E R U L A M , S T A L B A N S Dutch photographer Hans Peter Van Velthoven, HP to some; is known by many by his unique photography approach, his style and of capturing stunning moments in the music world, covering musicians and bands lncluding @u2 @stereophonicsofficial @muse @paolonutini @nothingbutthieves Coldplay, The Cure amongst many others Spanning 21 years plus Hans Peter spoke to an audience in an intimate cinema talking about his range and diversity of assignments and clients, building relationships, trust and how some of those unique photographic moments are based on luck but also a deep knowledge of the technicals that allow for the moment to manifest. Stand out moments for me were to hear him talk about the Muse live in Rome film and of his executive creative directorship was a notable moment in his career so far. Also of how the Drones tour offered unique opportunities to photograph the band and how his timing of getting inside the stage was crucial to avoiding possibly being maimed by the stage still revolving ! Mind the Gap!! He spoke of moments of being approached by labels and allowing just one photo to be taken of the artist, and of how just even one photo can open doors, his story of being pulled up on stage by none other than Bono to photograph U2 was incredible and of the rapid succession of events that allowed him to photograph the band on stage with his unique eye when he had film in the camera to shoot 😂✨ Looking forward to hearing stories from his time on the solar challenges and how different challenging weather conditions demand different preparations that you don't get on AFAA assignments Thank you to Hans Peter and @immersionsmayvary for putting on this discussive forum, if you get the chance to talk to HP or get the opportunity to attend another talk don't miss it.
