I love photography, the impact one single image can have baffles me. Whether it’s political, just a spontaneous shot or -more in my line of work- a concertphoto with just the correct amount of lighting, the right look. It’s beautiful.

Marike Jager at De Waalse Kerk in Zwolle
Last Saturday Marike Jager and Henk Jan Heuvelink came to Zwolle for Marike’s Church tour. The concert sold out, promising a good turn-up in the lovely church.
Danny Vera and Taneytown in Vera
Last Thursday I decided to test my newly repaired roadbike wheel and had to pick up the pace as the round got a bit bigger then I had planned. Did a good round, rushed to the shower and then quickly drove to Groningen for Danny Vera’s gig in -appropriately- Vera.
House of Cosy Cushions in Vanslag
A few months ago House of Cosy Cushions played in Vanslag. As a duo Richard Bolhuis had taken violinist Saskia Meijs with him, this time Richard is back, but now with a full band.
Anneke van Giersbergen in Vera
As Nick Lowe had just started his set I rushed over to Vera. I mean, Nick Lowe’s a nice guy and all, but in Anneke van Giersbergen was playing in Vera and how could I possibly miss that gig?

Marike Jager in Doopsgezinde Kerk in Utrecht
I don’t often travel through half the country for concerts, but when you get an invitation to attend the album presentation of one of the sweetest singer/songwriters of the Netherlands you’re not going to say no, now are you?

The Meschiya Lake Quartet in Jazzcafe De Spieghel
Two years ago at the 15th edition of Take Root Meschiya Lake left a big impression with her striking looks and fantastic mix of old time jazz, ragtime and rhythm&blues. However as is life for festival photographers I didn’t get to see all that much of her as other acts were also being played and needed attention. So how fantastic was it that Meschiya was bringing her quartet to Jazzcafe De Spieghel in Groningen?
