Hi, I’m Jef, a Nature and Lifestyle Photographer

Photography is my second great love, which was inspired by my first one - the great outdoors.
Let's venture out together
out here Doing what I love....

Fact 01

I'm Jef

I was born and raised in Belgium but the mountains kept calling me. I live in Austria with my wonderful family now, and spending time in nature is what fulfills me.

Fact 02

Withstanding the elements

There is nothing better than challenging yourself. To be outdoors and experience thunder, rain, snow, wind, makes me feel alive. It takes some sacrifices to make that ultimate photo you had in mind. What if I told you that's the part I love the most?

Fact 03

Photography

If nature is my first true love, photography is my second one. Fifteen years ago I was strolling around in Paris with a camera during Fashion week and I loved it. When I became a father, nature started calling more and more intensely.

fact 04

Perspective

Not only am I a photographer, I am a certified drone pilot. There is something absolutely magical in capturing nature's essence from above.
