Dog photography 101

For the past 15+ years, I've been working as a professional dog photographer and I've been sharing dog stories, photographs, and shoots for many years on the Dutch version of this website and blog. After organizing a series of workshops I discovered the joy of...

Nature walks + working on my 100-day project (video)

A glimpse into quiet spring days with my dogs—some time by the lake, creative flow in the studio, and the small moments in between. I’m working on my 100-day project, drawing dogs from our Instagram community, and soaking up the season as it slowly unfolds....

Daily dog drawings, week 13

Just a small club of four sweeties joining the #the100daysproject this week. I’ll be on the move a lot the next few weeks, so I’ll aim for 3-4 drawings a week. The good news is I’ll be catching up on some suggestions I missed in earlier rounds....

We got sun on our minds

As I sit down to write this post, the warm and sunny days feel so far away. I feel the wintery mood in my bones and dive deep into my warm cardigan. The light outside is flat, the sky shades of grey, a perfect day...

Daily dog drawings, week 12

This week, we've had our first real spring weather with marvelous warm and sunny days. On Thursday we even reached 18*C! I thought that if I'd take some more time outdoors with the dogs, I wouldn't be able to finish all my work and the 7...

Daily dog drawings, week 11

Another week flew by and it feels like I've been drawing non-stop but I managed to get 7 more dogs into the 100day club :-) Six of these dogs were suggestions from the Instagram dog community who tagged their friends, the last one, Amos, was a...

An unexpected encounter

I might have exaggerated what in reality was a tiny and sleepy snake that was probably woken up by Mo dragging around some sticks, but Lizzie did make a funny jump :-)   Another creature we caught on camera (the wildlife camera in the garden), was a...

Daily dog drawings, week 10

What a fun week it has been! I've had quite a busy week at the studio, but the sun has been pouring in, energizing all of us. I've been waking up with the sunrise and enjoying glittering frosty dog walks at times that were still pitch...

Daily dog drawings, week 9

It’s been a week of quiet walks, sketchbook sessions, and even a surprise encounter with a snake! (more about that later) After a sunny weekend that felt like spring, we went back to howling wind and bits of snow on Monday- which is perfect for hiding...

Ice skating with Lizzie

I wasn't sure if I would ever dare to put on ice skates and take off onto a frozen lake. Not only am I Belgian (trained to stay away from natural ice because it was never safe where I lived), but the slippery memories of hanging...
