about me
Fascinated from an early age by images in all shapes and sizes. From pencil and paper to stories with the pen. But, give me a camera and there's no stopping it.
More than 10 years of experience in the field, with a keen eye for detail.
Knows like no other how to make people shine for the camera.
Now active for www.riskedevries.nl (social and cultural film productions) and www.devideomakers.nl (online video courses)

Videoclips voor muziek, inspiratieve video's voor bijvoorbeeld trainingen, portretfoto's, ea.

remarks
Image is such a strong medium that I prefer to use it for a good cause. My passion for my visual profession is about as great as my will to help people, so it's a logical step for me to make videos and photos that might make the world a little more beautiful. For example, to make the viewer think, to learn something or to inspire. With 10 years of experience, that is something that always works.
