It was a very long and tiresome week, but boy did I have fun. Hours were spend guiding people past the mailbox of the glass house and hours helping people registering cheques. It was the best of fun to sell ‘Lingoliebollen’ with Lucille Werner and JP, answering the phone in the church, in the little callcentre in there, to hear the stories of all those people giving money to hear a record played and that final moment in the double row with the DJ’s passing through to the stage with the grande finale. The crazy amount of over 12 million was gathered this year and I had to cry, right there and then in Enschede.
Hopefully I will be able to do the same thing again next year, for it was awesome and I hope to see Leeuwarden go all the way! But for now, I want to finish with just a few moments, a few pictures to show you guys my week of Serious Request!
At the Elf Fantasy Fair I took a little time to shoot Nikki Liem & Melchior ten Hoopen as wartime heroes. I thought it would be a shame not to share them.
As promised, some more pictures I took at this years Castlefest.
As my boyfriend is the lead guitarist of the Sassenachs, I travel with them from time to time when they visit festivals. I bring my camera as well and hey, when there, why not shoot some pictures, right? So this weekend they played the Celtic Festival in Hank. A festival they have played before and generally is a very nice one. As it’s almost the end of the festivalseason, it was nice to join them again and shoot some pictures. This time they were joined by the lovely ladies of the Deosil Scylla Tribe, a tribal bellydance group from Dordrecht. The results were lovely and I had a great time shooting a few pictures…
For the rest of the pictures, check the album on their Facebook page…
This year, of course I wouldn’t skip Castlefest. It’s my favorite festival of the year and I had tons of fun with everyone around, but when it comes to taking pictures, it’s one of the places I just loooove to shoot. Everyone dresses up, makes the most of it and gives me the chance to shoot them. So it would be a shame not to share some of the lovely shots I’ve taken at Castlefest. Now, it would be too much to just dump everything in one post, so I’ll spread it over a few, divided by theme. I hope you’ll all enjoy these…
More to follow!
My pictures of the sunday at Keltfest 2012.
A set of myof pictures of Keltfest’s saturday…
The last two days I’ve been at the Keltfest festival. The wonderful birds of prey of Birdlive were there as well, so I took the time to take some portraits of these beautiful animals. More pictures of the festival will follow!
Every year in the Netherlands, on the 4th of May we remember all who lost their lives for our freedom, from the second World War onwards. On the 5th of May, we celebrate that freedom with festivals all over the country. This year I was asked to take pictures of the festival in the Hague. So here’s a small selection of what I shot yesterday.
These pictures and a much wider range were publicized on Fok!
And there was another day of hanging out in the beautiful surroundings of the ‘De Haar’ castle during the Elf Fantasy Fair on sunday. I’d love to share some more with you again.
