Yesterday one year ago I thought I was going to travel the world. That ended up being a vacation of three weeks. I’m happy I got to see all the beautiful places we went to, but I’m also sad that I couldn’t finish what I waited and saved up for all this time. This year has gone by fast and slow at the same time. We still tried to have some travel fun during the summer. So if all of this didn’t happen, this picture and the pictures to come over the next period of time wouldn’t have existed. And I kind of like them so I’m happy they do 😊 @ Hallstatt, Austria

So there you go, this is the final picture of my USA series for now!📷��It’s almost one year ago that me and my boyfriend went on the dream trip that we’ve been looking forward to for multiple years. What should’ve been a beautiful time travelling across the world, turned into a three week vacation. Still beautiful, but not what we had hoped, waited and saved up for. When we left the USA we were hoping we could be back in February 2021, but life decided to choose a different path. So we’ll both be finishing university first, and after that we’ll see what life brings us. Throughout the year uploading my pictures has helped me to look back on the trip and my memories. It feels so weird to close that USA chapter on here as well now. Thank you so much for listening and following along! 🧡 I hope you’ve enjoyed the pictures, found some inspiration or perhaps put some new locations on your bucketlist. Stay tuned for more pictures and a USA video that I’ll hopefully upload this weekend! It’s not completely done yet, so I feel like I should put this promise out here to end my perfectionist struggle of never feeling done with my work!

Sometimes I like to get creative with my pictures. I had this in mind for quite a while, I wanted to duplicate myself in some sort of desert, sand or beach location. When it became clear the pandemic was real I started trying to think of ideas to shoot in the Netherlands. I thought of shooting this idea at one of our Dutch local sand dune locations, however after we did a photoshoot at the sand dunes in Death Valley I spontaneously decided to try it right then right there. So here you go with my newest creation ☺️

My feed is full of these kinds of pictures, a gorgeous landscape meeting a small human subject for reference. I love looking at them and I love how they make nature feel as this grand, gorgeous awe-inspiring thing created by mother earth. The thing is, whenever I try to create such pictures myself it never turns out like the pictures I’ve seen and I often end up disliking the result. My photography eye likes to see the human subject closer by the lens because humans, to me, are just as beautiful and interesting as nature is. This picture however is the first landscape-is-more-prominent picture I’ve taken that I truly love. It makes me excited to learn and try more of that in the future, when traveling to those awe-inspiring places is possible again of course! ☺️

How do you deal with difficulties? What do you do when things get difficult? ��Hey there, you’re looking at a new creative thing that I’m trying 😊 I found this idea in a video by and and I wanted to do something with it in my own style! I love the result, however I had a hard time creating this. I almost didn’t want to post this because I’m not completely happy with the colours and with the smoothness of the movement. I’m becoming more and more aware of my way of dealing with difficulties, which is procrastinating the thing I want or have to do or not doing anything at all. I’m a perfectionist and I want everything to be all or nothing. I’m not sure why I react to difficulties that way but I’m trying to improve myself, which is why I’m trying to force myself to do those things anyway. And that’s precisely why I’m posting this now. I may not have been able to make this creation ‘’perfect’’, but I did make the decision that it’s ready. Goodbye procrastination! 👋

I promise this is the last picture I’m posting of my Bryce Canyon adventure. Put emphasis on picture 😉 All of these pictures hold a very special place in my heart. For the people who don’t know my 2020 story yet, here’s a little recap: last March me and my boyfriend tried to make our travel dream come true. We would be travelling through the USA for three months. However, that trip got cut short because of a reason we all know. A reason that caused many people’s dreams to be put on hold this year. We didn’t want to end our trip in a sad way so we decided to make the most of our last days. We chose to see one last beautiful national park and drove six hours through a snow storm to get there. I loved every single second of those 24 hours, even the tears and the sadness that were attached to it. The picture you’re looking at perfectly describes that feeling. We felt so small in this big world that suddenly took control over our lives and decisions but we were determined to face the sun and leave the dark, moody shadow behind us. So even though we were very emotional about leaving, we turned that into our most beautiful day of this year. Anyway, who’s excited for a little video of that day? 🙊

That morning we woke up and drove a silent road. We parked our car and said good morning to the only two people we came across hiking the trail. A few days ago I had Googled the location, upon which Google told me it would be busy and full of photographers lined up to photograph the first light of the day hitting the red rocks. After twenty minutes of walking we found the place, empty. We enjoyed the area, just the two of us. We took pictures, had fun, climbed the red rocks and even lost our way on the walk back. We didn’t see a single soul during the few hours we were there. And that’s when deep down I knew something on earth was different.

Hello, you’re looking at the photoshoot that made me laugh the most. I wanted to take pictures of me blowing bubbles but that totally failed because the wind was too strong and the bubbles blew out of the frame before we could even shoot pictures 😂 So I decided to climb into these rocks and try out the weirdest model poses I could think of. Just for fun, because I didn’t think that particular photoshoot would be a success anymore anyway. However, I actually really like how they turned out. What do you think? Ps. Head over to my stories to see the failures!😜

Which one, 1 or 2? 😊

And here it is, the last picture of my Iceland series. I want to conclude the series by looking at the art of different perspectives. This picture was taken at the Solheimasandur plane wreck in Iceland. I had only seen (very beautiful) pictures of the plane, but I had never seen the scene from inside the plane. While we were shooting I wanted to try shooting from inside the plane. I had this idea and I really thought it would result in a bad picture, because all I had seen were these gorgeous pictures of the plane and its empty surroundings. I wanted to go for it anyway and surprisingly they turned out so fun! I love being creative and trying to find different perspectives, because that’s what eventually results in the most lively and unique pictures. It might, at the same time, also result in the worst picture you’ve ever taken. And that’s the thing with creativity: it’s one big contradiction of failing and succeeding: without the failure the successes wouldn’t exist. Actually, I think this might be true for life in general: without the negatives, the positives wouldn’t exist. So remember that next time you’re going through something rough! 🧡
