Meer over Walter Maria R....

Wat vind je het leukst aan je werk?

What I love most about my job is the ability to connect with people and tell their stories through images. Every shoot is different – it challenges me creatively and technically, keeping me inspired. But above all, I love knowing that what I create will hold meaning for someone forever, whether it’s a portrait, a wedding moment, or an editorial story. Photography lets me turn fleeting moments into something timeless.

Welke soorten shoots heb je gedaan en hoe heb je ze speciaal gemaakt?

I’ve worked on many types of shoots – portraits, weddings, fashion editorials, commercial campaigns, and lifestyle storytelling. What makes them special is my approach: I always focus on creating a comfortable atmosphere where people can be themselves. I look for natural happiness, genuine emotions, and real moments rather than forcing poses. Whether I’m shooting a brand campaign or a simple portrait, I aim to capture the true feeling of that moment and tell a story that feels honest and alive.

Prijzen, onderscheidingen en erkenningen ontvangen

I’ve been honoured to have my work featured in various exhibitions and publications, and I’ve received recognition in both local and international photography competitions. One of my proudest achievements is seeing my images published in respected magazines and used by brands I admire. But the greatest recognition for me is always the trust and appreciation I receive from the people I photograph.

Een leuk feitje over deze fotograaf

A fun fact about me is that I’m obsessed with vintage cameras and gear – my house is full of old film cameras, guitars, and amps. I love finding old things, fixing them up, and bringing them back to life, whether it’s for photography or music.
