About Me

Who is Erik?

Photography or Science


Hi, I am Erik. Originally from the far north of the Netherlands. So, I am Dutch, but based near Leuven, Belgium. During the day I play around in a lab as a researcher at the Maastricht Science Programme of the Maastricht University, The Netherlands. I try to solve some environmental problems with the help of synthetic biology. But that is probably not why you are here 😉

Since I am ‘working with my head’ a lot during the day, I feel that photography gives me the perfect counterbalance to clear my head. Not that there is no need to think in photography of course. But I can perfectly loose myself and the track of time for hours when I am ‘in the field’.

Fine Art Photography

One Artistic Eye Deserves Another


I am a synthetic biologist from the Netherlands, based in Belgium. When I am not doing interesting research stuff, I like loosing myself in photographing things. I like being out alone in nature with my camera. But also during my travels I try to explore every angle of a scene and do the occasional travel and street photography. Until my fellow travellers get too nerveous from waiting for me. Again.

Capturing Special Events

Your Biggest Moments Captured, Without Interruption


Let’s face it – a special event is something we look back on for years to come, remembering the good times we’ve had and the wonderful people we’ve shared our lives with. Capturing that event is just as important as any other detail you need to work out. My photography will help you capture the magic of the moment, whether it’s a graduation, wedding, anniversary, baptism or similar special moment in your life.

Because I’ve worked with so many clients in so many different environments, you’ll barely notice I’m there – the occasional touch to fix a hem or request to turn slightly is all you’ll notice. This is just one way I capture the magic.
