I’m always open to new ideas and create new work. If it is personal or commissioned. Please feel free to contact me. I’m used to work in a lively and real setting where situations can change very quickly. I love to take portraits and reportages, as well as a combination of those two directions. I have a studio based in Amsterdam. I would like to invite you to come by for a chat, drinks and some shooting!

About
Jet is a Fine Art photographer based in Amsterdam. Graduated from the Amsterdam Photo Academy in 2018. Her work aims to open the eyes for the vulnerability in all of us and the details that are usually overlooked or too easily judged. She wants to shift the focus from the outside to the inside and raise awareness of how taking a different perspective and focus, can reveal a new reality. Reveal the strength which lies in Weakness and shows the Beauty in Imperfection. She wants people to discover the ties that bind us and the common humanity inside us beyond appearance, looks, backgrounds, race, and cultures.
