About The Artist

Dutch Travel and Lifestyle Photographer & Blogger from the Netherlands, on social media as @fokkebok. Started photographing when I was 12 with a small vintage camera wich, which I bring on vacations and fishing trips. Later on, I stopped photographing for a while but when the mobile phones came out with cameras, my interest in photographing did grow again. So I started photographing on trips, did buy a decent DSLR, posted on social media, and one year later I started to license my photos. I like to see new things, new people, landscapes, and food and explore things around us when we travel. We always look for the wow factor in pictures. When you riding in your car in the mountains it always fascinates me, the power of nature the colors and changing seasons the sunrises and sunsets I never can get enough of all the colors around us and I try to bring that back in my photography. ​ Photography can defeat time. Images can keep the memory of a loved one alive, hold a moment in history for future generations, be a witness to tragedy or joy. They can also change behavior, stimulate understanding and create a sense of urgency that moves people to action. Photography is the universal language that speaks to the heart.
