Rogier Kwikkers (NL,1983)
My interest for photography started during my (business) travels. At first, I brought my camera along to capture memories. Later, this grew into a passion for creating beautiful images, abroad and closer to home.
I graduated the University of Applied Photography ("Fotovakschool") in Rotterdam in 2019. Through this education I have had the chance to work on a variety of assignments, from stills to fashion shoots and studio portraits, from car reports to corporate events and construction sites. This diversity in assignments has helped me develop within different fields. It has taught me to determine my own angle of approach and has evolved my own interests.
My interests are diverse; I like working in the studio where you are in full control of scene and light. On the other hand, I also enjoy being in the field, working with the available light – or lack of- to capture city- and landscapes in its broadest sense.

In my studio work I like to work conceptually, whether these are portraits or still lifes, I aim to tell a story. In principle this is my own story, however; it’s the untold story that triggers you to tell your own.
For both disciplines I enjoy seeing my image materialize into a print. Nothing beats a beautiful image printed on high quality paper in big format hanging on the wall.
I hope you enjoy my work, feel free to connect and leave me a comment, question or inquiry!
