For my first work trip of 2023 I was recently in South Korea covering a few assignments in Seoul and Busan, with several free days in between jobs. It was my first time back in the country since the pandemic so I was quite happy to roam around the streets of Seoul, which is one of my favorite cities in Asia, and capture some busy urban frames of this very cool looking megacity.
Atelier Vierkant - Urban Furniture Photography in Doha, Qatar
One of the most exciting project that I had the chance to work on this year was a set of photos documenting the installation of pots by Belgian pottery manufacturer Atelier Vierkant around the streets of Doha, Qatar. The aim of this series was to showcase the products as well as their surroundings in order to give a general sense of environmental integration for these objects.

Poland Architecture Photography - Museum of the Second World War, Gdansk
Winter is upon us again and snow has recently started to blanket large parts of Poland. I took this as a good opportunity to head up North to the coastal city of Gdansk and shoot various architectural landmarks in this specific visual setting. In particular, I was keen to photograph the beautiful Museum of the Second World War by Kwadrat architecture studio. The deep rusty-red color of its structure contrasting sharply with the muted white surroundings, giving the story of this architectural design even more impact.

Poland Architecture Photographer - CKK Jordanki, Torun
Poland has been developing a lot over the past decades and one of the most obvious signs of this is the modern architecture popping up everywhere around the country. I was recently given access by the very kind communications team at CKK Jordanki in Torun to document the amazing structure of this concert hall and conference center designed by Fernando Menis. The brutalist-influenced building suprisingly blends in seamlessly with its surroundings while the dramatic volumes inside create a unique experience for visitors and of course photographers as well.
