1.7 million photos in 10 years, thatโs the amount of pictures it took to get me where I am on this day. And boy, am I grateful.
Today I celebrate being a photographer for 10 years. On this day in 2013, me and @gertjanunknwn founded Lumen Photography and shot our first event together (thank you for the trust @brechtdegeyter and @yasminemsch )
The growth my brand went through post-covid has been absolutely mind-blowing. With an incredible amount of pride I can state that I am doing what Iโve wanted to do when I first started this journey, working with clients Iโve always dreamt of working with.
A decade of freezing time, learning and growing, on both a professional and personal level. The people Iโve met, the places Iโve visited, the gratitude Iโve received. Thank you for your trust and making my life so fulfilling <3

2 days ago, I had the opportunity to be the photographer at North Sea Summit 2023, annual conference that brings together European governments and representatives of various sectors, about protecting & improving the North Sea region.
Hereโs a few clicks I wanted to share. Not gonna lie: probably my favorite all-time assignment.

3 months ago we embarked on a 8 day trekking journey through the Peaks of the Balkan. As a photographer, couldn't not bring my camera, obviously. Here's part 1 of 2. ๐ค
Fun facts:
1) I carried 2kg of soda everyday because I was afraid to drink the (probably contaminated) source water, which it was not, apparently.
2) I was planning on not drinking alcohol during the trip. The plan did not work (last photo for proof ๐ )
3) I need to work on my cardio
4) Albanians do not abide gun laws
5) The 11 year old girls are better in speaking English than my high school English teacher.

THANK YOU to every single soul who has helped me and who I was able to help this past month. You know who you are โค๏ธ
I am absolutely grateful for all the trust I have been given and the co-operation I received.
I can only look back at this and this and say: thank you & bring it on! ๐ช

Here's to nightlife. ๐
One year without nightlife, one year without zatte fotokes maken.
What has gotten me started and what has gotten me this far in my career has now been prohibited for one year exactly. Even though nightlife has not my core business for a while, events definitely still are. And the only thing I am yearning for is to be able to capture all these emotions on events again.
Hopefuly things are getting better soon. But one thing is for sure: I am more than thankful for every soul I met and who has given me opportunities in my carreer. If there is one thing we know for certain now, its that we Vlamingen nightlife nodig hebben. Dus overheid do your best e grtz

Here's a sunny throwback on a misty monday: looking back on sunnier, happier and brighter days. ๐
We visited this luxury home in Italy in September (can't believe it was actually allowed to travel 6 months ago), and it was probably one of the best homes we ever visited. Thank you @thorhansen for your splendid hospitality, and amazing house. Looking forward to visiting again, one day
