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...
The past week has been exciting, with celebrations for Mo's birthday, the first spring-like days, and lots of drawing. For the dogs, one of the highlights was a pheasant walking around the studio picking sunflower seeds from underneath the bird feeders. His feathers shone brightly in...
Happy Birthday, Mogwai & siblings <3 12 years of the best gremlin in the world, the sweetest Momootje, always by my side. Endless energy, endless love. Special birthdays require special efforts, so when we visited Belgium, we drove to the beach for early birthday walks. The dogs were...
