Piet van den Bemd - Expedition Photographer

During his childhood, Piet developed a fascination for nature and wildlife, which intensified when he got his first camera at 16. His visit to the Arctic at 17 stole his heart with its diverse wildlife, landscapes, and culture. With an ecology background, he soon realized the rapid changes and threats these places face. After working as a whale watching guide, he decided to live in the North. Inspired by the oceans' beauty and freedom and the North's pure wilderness, he aims to create awareness through photography and secure the future of these "untouched" places. With a camera in hand and a lot of motivation, he wants to share his passion with everyone.
