Hoi Maarten,

Je kent me (nog) niet, maar ik heb je net een email via vandigital@yahoo gestuurd. I am enjoying this gallery. What impressive shots: the light ,colors, shadows, fantastic compositions, and the feelings and beauty which shine through all your images.
Bel me of email me even terug, ok?!

Maarten: een van mijn kollegas toonde me jouw gallerij, met fotos van haar dochter (Amelia). Heb ik net even de andere fotos bekeken. Ik heb al veel professionele fotos gezien, ik geniet altijd van de lokale artiesten in onze Californische Art&Wine festivals. Maar jouw talent is toch een niveau hoger! Ongelooflijke timing en kompositie. Echt kunst, bedankt om dit hier in de gallerijen te laten bekijken...

Guest 05-Jun-2005 05:22
Hi Maartin,
Went thru your gallery - what a variety of aesthetics your pix display: composition, color, capturing the moment, but especially the revealing of personalities -whether the target subject is aware of it or not!! No wonder you're in demand for weddings..! Ciao

Ha Maarten... echt supermooie foto's. We zijn erg onder de indruk. Ik kon eerst niet geloven dat jij die allemaal gemaakt had, dacht dat het gewoon een algemene fotodatabase was. Maar toen we jou er ook zelf tussen zagen staan, wisten we dus toch dat het echt waar was. Echt heel gaaf. Groetjes, Sjon en Esther
