Hi, I’m Daan Kooistra. Photographer. Storyteller. Light-architect.
I’ve started making images since 2019. Since then, my life hasn’t been the same. From that moment on, I wanted to take pictures and tell stories about people, capture the moments that shape them and the world they move through.
And as of right now, I won’t stop soon.
What drives me is the power of a photo that goes beyond the visual impression.
I believe every photo tells something about who we are, where we are, and what truly matters in that moment.
Whether it’s an intimate portrait, a breathtaking landscape, or an event that passes by too quickly I’m here to capture that unique experience, so you can always return to that special moment.
I'll make sure you remember your special moment not in foggy memories, but in crystal-clear pixels.
My work is not just about capturing images; it’s about the stories they tell. I believe every photo reflects a piece of our world while also capturing something intimate: who we are, where we are, and when it truly matters.
From the dynamic energy of a festival to the stillness of a distant land, I use light, emotion, and context to tell your story.
So, are you ready to capture the story of yourself, a beloved friend or family-member or those moments during important events in your life?
Let’s create that story, capture that memory and cherish it forever.
Curious about what we can create together? Whether you have a project in mind or would like to give me the freedom to apply my expertise, I’m here to tell your story in pictures.
