Where do you get the latest news on new gear? Where do You usually buy new gear?
We mostly buy our gear in the local camera shop, where we can test every lens before we buy them.
How is photography making the world a better place in 2024?
Because of photography we can show the world there is more than just your local place. We can warm people for new adventures and explore other countries/places.
What emerging photography trends do you foresee gaining popularity in 2024?
Storytelling photos, every year, more and more.
If you could pick a photography mentor in 2024, who would you pick? Why?
‘Jacob’ on Instagram. His style is really nice and unique.
The unavoidable question: How do you see the use of artificial intelligence or machine learning impacting photography in 2024?
It will be difficult for photographers and creative minds over the next few years, but a machine can’t take away the feeling of taking the ‘perfect’ shot. On the other hand, it is also a great tool in the Adobe programs; it can make your work easier. It’s there, and we have to adapt to it.
What is your favorite photography book or resource that will continue to have a significant impact on your career in 2024? Why?
Instagram is a good way to connect with other photographers and share ideas that are positive for your creativity.
What is your go-to method for overcoming creative block and finding inspiration in 2024?
As said before, Instagram is a great source of creative ideas. Don’t just copy things, but always think about how to ‘improve’ somebody else’s shot by adding your personal touch to it.
Try things and keep trying.

If you could give one piece of advice to a beginner in photography, what would it be?
Try things and keep trying. Take your camera everywhere with you and try different angles on the same object/person.
Take your time to learn the skills about editing, and don’t buy cheap presets; make your own. This will improve your editing skills so much more than just copy/paste.
