Jeroen & Natasha
Remember these guys? I photographed their wedding some years ago and Jeroen wanted to surprise Natasha with a familysession for her birthday. Yay! It was so good to see them again, this time with little Juul. Thanks! Curious how I would photograph you and your loved ones? Drop me a line via the contactform or at dearhanke@gmail.com to get the magic started!
Spaces between moments
Our lives are filled with moments in between moments. We take photos of the dinnerparty but rarely photos of being on the road to that same dinner party. We take photos of our weekends and holidays but not so much of the unexciting days in between. Of the mess, the cracks, the stuff that you think is not worth spending €3 per photo on. But aren't these the moments that shape us, our friendships and our home? WINTER 2017 - I find this a very interesting topic and so I started taking a tiny 35mm camera with me at all time and now and then shoot these moments that shape me. Not for the sake of shooting but for the sake of being able to remember what filled my life. It takes me a second to take a photo and then the camera is back in my pocket. Even 1 photo can bring me back to a week of memories. There is a small line between documenting every single thing you do because you want to show the world you are what
Thomas & Aline
The last islands of snow were slowly melting when we climbed onto the dunes to find some light on a dark, rainy Winter day.
Pizza with friends | SUGO
Don't you just love how easy it is to order some food and get it delivered right to you at any place, any time? Or just get some take away, take your bike to the river and have a romantic dinner for two without all the kitchen stuff? It's just so easy! Well I sure do now and then (not too often or I'll get lazy)! And my guilty pleasure is pizza. That being said, it was so much fun to do this shoot for SUGO pizza together with stylist-friend Anne van Midden. Friends, organic pizza, italian beer, a city like Rotterdam and some killer tiramisu to top it off (seriously I have been dreaming about that tiramusi for days after shooting this!). What more do you need? Double fun to have used my own garden in some shots hihi! styling: Anne van Midden/Inspire Styling
Suzanne Schulting | Wendy Magazine
On a cold and windy (yet sunny) morning I photographed gold medal winner Suzanne Schulting and her dad on their beautiful piece of land for Wendy Magazine. Fun times!
Sofie van den Enk | Yoga Magazine
In the middle of 2017 I went to Portugal together with Sofie van den Enk to document her experiences in a beautiful small retreat for another piece in Yoga Magazine. We had so much fun sharing a room, walking to the beach and just doing nothing at all. And of course Sofie did amazing yoga sessions every day. What a blessing to call this work right? The newest issue of Yoga Magazine is now in stores, be sure to check it out and read the story about how Sofie find ways to fight her depression and how she experienced being on this corner of Europe for a whole week. Some of favorite outtakes below:
Honeymoon
Personal photos from our 1-week honeymoon in Sardinia in September. What a bliss to do nothing but snorkle, eat pizza and pet donkeys for 7 days in a row with my favorite boy on earth.
