Travel/Landscape/Outdoor & Swamp photographer/videographer Based in Florida I moved to Florida in 2006.

My wife and I, every journey we go on either in our own backyard or on one of the many swamp walks or gorgeous places all over the world.We try not to just film or take a picture but capture the emotion and story that goes a long with it.Both an award-winning photographer as videographer with many of my images showcased on various magazines, and platforms like ABC TV, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, Herald Tribune, DR. Phillips HS, Earth Justice. I fell in love with photography in 1992 back in Belgium when everything was still on film, I had my own little dark room and made most pictures in sepia and black and white. It didn't take long before I bought my first video camera and ever since that, video and photography has been an essential part of my life. I have been very fortunate to share the same passion with my wife Veerle. We each have different approaches, my experience and eagerness to better myself technically as well as emotionally, my love for landscapes and her excitement and patience and keen eye to capture wildlife, and our latest passion of capturing the endangered orchids of Florida, allowed us to create a diverse portfolio of fine art photographs.

Captured along the mystical, moss-draped paths of the Promenade de la Hoëgne in Belgium, this fine art photograph isolates the fragile elegance of two bonnet mushrooms (Mycena) emerging from the river valley's vibrant undergrowth. The soft, luminous glow of the translucent caps contrasts beautifully with the deep, saturated greens of the Ardennes forest floor. This piece brings a serene touch of classic European woodland magic and organic minimalism into any modern home or gallery setting.

The Silent Observer.

The image captures the incredibly rare Florida Ghost Orchid (Dendrophylax lindenii) angled in a way that makes it look almost sentient—as if the flower itself is intently watching the vibrant yellow fly perched upon its petals. By capturing this eerie, lifelike gaze in the deep shadows of the swamp, the photograph blurs the line between botanical and conscious life.

Spirit of the Swamp.

No leaves, no soil—just air and shadow. She hangs like a whisper, barely there. A bloom so rare it feels imagined, like the forest dreamed her into being.
White ribbons drift like smoke, petals reaching for something unseen. She doesn’t shout her beauty— she lingers, quiet and haunting.
You don’t find her. She chooses to be seen.
