Herman combines a calm, personal approach with craftsmanship honed during his photographic studies at Beeldcentrum. In his graduation project STOER! he photographed children within socially relevant projects — an example of how he makes people visible with respect and care. He applies that same attention to family, child and newborn photography: everyone is given the space to simply be themselves. What makes his approach special? Herman works with a sharp eye for detail and seeks stories in small moments. Whether it’s a spontaneous laugh, a tender touch during a newborn session, or a playful interaction between siblings, he captures it in a relaxed, safe atmosphere. His style is warm and understated; the emphasis is on natural light and compositions that enhance emotion without overdoing it. How does a photoshoot with Herman proceed?
