Here you have a little bit more of Inge
- How did you begin in Photography?
How I started in photography.. Well, I guess that was about two years ago. My dad bought a Nikon D50 around that time and I figured I'd give it a try. I really liked it, joined Flickr and tons of people started telling me that I really had a talent, so, I continued until it really became my most favourite thing to do! :)
- How do you define your work?
Wow, that's a difficult one! My goal in photography is always to picture the things that people usually don't see. That little flower by the side of the road that you would've walked past without noticing if you hadn't seen my photo. I want to take pictures of things and make them beautiful, make people amazed by God's amazing creation! So the goal of my photos is showing beauty and I do that by mostly using vivid colours and a whole ton of bokeh, haha. So the definition of my photography would be, using Coldplay's words, life in technicolour!
- Which picture would you like to take you haven't yet?
- Which picture would you like to take you haven't yet?
Ohh I soooo badly want to take a picture of a beautiful girl with a ton of freckles in a yellow field when the sun is setting. That is my biggest photography dream right now, haha. Sadly enough, we don't have golden fields here in Holland :/
- What's the best photographic advice that you have received? What would be your best advice to us?
- Which photographers inspire you?
- What's the best photographic advice that you have received? What would be your best advice to us?
Ehm, advice. I really can't remember that, actually. My advice would be, don't try to find extraordinary subjects but try to make something simple extraordinary. You don't need gigantic churches, golden fields or journeys to a far away country for good photos, a good photographer can make an amazing photo of the grass in his backyard, for example.
- Which photographers inspire you?
So many of 'em! My greatest inspiration is and has been Katrina (Littlesilverboxes) though. The light in her pictures always challenges me to look for that golden sunflare everywhere. And also Siebe Warmoeskerken and Natalie Franke are really awesome.
Thank you Inge.
