This month "Peak" was featured in the prestigious National Geographic. Having my first landscape focussed project in this magazine means a lot to me.

The V-Stand
For years I have been looking for the perfect book stand. One that offers quality, minimal design and will last for years. Because I couldn't find the perfect stand anywhere I decided to design it myself. The V Stand is placed low on the table, so you can look inside the book even when you're sitting down. Because of this low perspective it looks like the book floats, but with the ideal angle so that the book, regardless of its thickness, will fall open nicely. A product that will last a lifetime and is essential on the table of any book collector.
YouTube | Project PEAK - Trekking through Nepal for a month
Really excited to show you one of the biggest adventures of my career so far. October 2019 I went on this crazy adventure together with my brother to shoot a project in Nepal. For 26 days we hiked through the mountains around Mount Annapurna. What is considered one of the most busy trails of Nepal was something different for us. We took the unbeaten path, away from all tourists and other adventurers. We took the path known to the guides as "the Annapurna hardway". Many days without meeting anyone, except sometimes some local mountain people. It resulted in a project, a book and a show. Voiceover is my own, with text from the preface I wrote for this book.

Amsterdam Portraits
Intriguing photo series about the unique face of Amsterdam in dozens of portraits by Bastiaan Woudt
Photographer Bastiaan Woudt and gallery owner Roy Kahmann conceived the idea of portraying Amsterdammers in the spring of 2019. They parked their mobile studio in different parts of the city, in order to get the most diverse inhabitants in front of the lens. The resulting book, Amsterdam Portraits, shows Amsterdammers of very different ages, backgrounds and professions - from well-known actors to anonymous streetwalkers, from schoolchildren to pensioners. It gives a beautiful picture of the diversity that the city exudes. This is what Amsterdam looks like today. Bastiaan Woudt has made a rapid breakthrough in the world of contemporary photography. Although he only started photographing six years ago, without experience or education, under the guidance of Roy Kahmann he has developed a distinct style in a short period of time, with a preference for portraits and nudes and with an unprecedented eye for detail. Even if he only spends a brief moment with his subject, as in the mobile studio of Amsterdam Portraits, he manages to capture the essence in a powerful, iconic image.

Virtual Reality Experience | Nude Now, Museum Hilversum
For the “Nude Now” show at Museum Hilversum in The Netherlands, I made a virtual reality experience. When putting on the VR goggles, you are in the middle of a shoot in my studio, with model Tinotenda Mushore. Visit the museum now and be part of this amazing experience! Together with a wall of my work and a film I made with Franggy Yanez, this experience is part of an overview of the private collection of Lindy and Roy Kahmann and the Kahmann Gallery collection.
