We stayed with Hans during our stay in Amsterdam.

He is a very friendly, pleasant, polite, very hospitable person.

It was a pleasure to live with him.

Thank you very much for the wonderful company and for your cozy home, as well as for your help!

We also had a wonderful shooting and we are very glad that we shot with you, the pictures are great and we will be very happy to come back to you when we come to Amsterdam again!

Best regards,

Another amazing photo shoot with Hans. He had the idea to do a shooting in the bathtub with black light, it was a great experience, I have never done that before and loved it very much as well as the images. We did a romantic girl-girl photo shoot with the lovely Vivid Dreamer on the next day, it was fun and the images are beautiful and unique. Each time I meet Hans we do different things and I enjoy it very much. He is a wonderful person, creative and easy going. I can't wait to shoot with him again.

I shot with Hans yesterday and the day before yesterday for the first time.

It was a very fun shoot, I played various roles, totally different between them.

Hans has a lot of clothes, accessories, shoes and especially lots of wigs that I like so much.

Hans is a nice person, kind and very creative.

I can’t wait to work with him again.

The third photo session with Hans was a wonderful experience. He dressed me in a gorgeous outfit and took me to Pampus island to take pictures in the fortress. It was amazing. The atmosphere of the place was a perfect match with my outfit. Later on we did studio images and also experimented some creative ideas. Hans is really open-minded and a very lovely person.

Each time it is a real pleasure to meet and shoot with him.

I look forward to the next opportunity.

Highly recommended to every model!

Last Tuesday I had my third photoshoot with the lovely CurlyAndBlond. This time I also hosted her. We shot a variety of styles. First we visited the fortress island Pampus that once was built to protect Amsterdam; I put her in a fantastic outfit based on a corset skirt. Then we did some portraits with a beauty dish, with her dressed in a flapper dress. We experimented with chiaroscuro (claire-obscure) back lighting, which is totally different from the standard Rembrandt lighting which I normally use. Then we did some experimental painting with light. She not only poses well, she also has so many creative ideas. Besides she is a lovely person, I enjoyed our conversations as much as the photoshoot. Looking forward to work with her again! Highly recommended.

I worked with him in Amsterdam & really enjoyed the shoot. Thanks for meeting me at the station in a very interesting little car that I’ve never experienced before. We shot inside using a pole static then spinning as well as using his Venus poster & shot outside too as the last images in a lovely outfit. He was kind & respectful so I’d love to work with him again in future as well as suggest him to others. All the very best, kindest regards.

I had the pleasure to meet Hans during my last tour in Netherlands. He offer me a room to stay and he was a really great host, friendly, respectful and with some good talk. We’ve work together during an half day. We first did i quick photo session in front of his Birth of Venus poster, then went to a Castle for an outdoor photoshoot, with a medieval outfit he prepare for me. To finish we came back to his home studio for some portrait.

I’ve appreciate working with Hans, he is professional, enthousiaste, with specific idea. I recommand him and will be happy to work with him again.

At the beginning of May, we had 2 different photoshoots in different locations. He was very open to my suggestions and took into account my opinion about the style of photos I like and my favourite angles. He also brought a vintage umbrella for our first photo shoot in the tulip field. It was such a great idea as it was protecting me from the harsh sun and it was perfect with the vibe and my dress. I had a great time with him. He is very friendly and respectful. I have so many great photos to choose from that I can't wait to share them on my Instagram. If I come back to Amsterdam, I will definitely contact him again. So I recommend him to anyone.

We met with Hans at his appartment which he transformed into a studio. A very welcoming professional, really respectful and from the first moment he makes you realise that he knows really well what he is doing.

He has an amazing collection of clothing and accessories for every kind of photoshoot you can imagine.

I really recommend Hans , without a doubt.

I shot with Hans for the second time during another Netherlands tour.

Me and Hans created various interesting and creative sets. We shot a gothic set in a beautiful black corset dress, we shot some sets of ghost images and we also shot some other sets.

He is a kind, creative, professional, respectful, passionate about photography, great with lighting and he’s also a lovely person. I enjoyed our chats during the shoot and in our breaks.

This time Hans hosted me during this tour and it went well.

I look forward to seeing the shoots results, as I loved many back of the camera images and our last shoot we also created great results 🙂. I really enjoyed creating with Hans.

Highly recommended photographer ⭐️

Wow!!! Had an incredible second shoot with Hans during my recent tour to the Netherlands.

Prior to shooting. Pre-communication and planning was excellent and I knew exactly what to pack and what we were shooting ect. On the shoot day Hans kindly met me at the train station which was so lovely of him.

As usual his place was set up with lovely lighting and backdrops. Hans had for the most stunning selection of clothing ready for me. Clothing isn’t always provided on shoots so it’s such a treat when a photographer provides his own high quality outfits. I felt like a princess in the lace look and I loved the burlesque look as well. We also shot some of my latex.

Hans plays themed music to really get you into character. Shooting with him is so much fun and I feel like he really brings out the best in me in images.

As well as shooting his Studio we also did a few shots on location too so we had a mixture of outdoors and indoors images and we were so lucky for excellent weather.

110% recommended!! Me and Hans had a blast what a fabulous second shoot.

I shot with Hans during one of my Netherlands tours.

He is kind, friendly, professional, artistic, great with his studio lighting and he is also outgoing too.

He made sure we had breaks when needed.

We shot many different themes in the shooting including victorian gothic, Emmanuel-inspired, some cosplay, portraits, and more.

I really enjoyed meeting and creating with Hans, he has themes in mind that he wants to create and I love when photographers come up with their own creative ideas.

I would love to shoot with him again next time if we're both available.

Highly recommended person and photographer :)

It was a big pleasure to meet and shoot with Hans.

He is a lovely and creative person, a serious and reliable photographer.

The outfits he selected for me were the perfect size and combination in terms of harmony of colours and styling as well, perfect match with the decoration. I cannot wait to shoot with him again. Highly recommended!

Thank you for the great time!

A serious photographer has a reliable & professional attitude and is a lovely person. Such a fantastic combination; he is incredible all around. We had a great time shooting and created some fantastic shots. Pre-communications were good and 100% professional.

Tania Aresti

Had a wonderful shoot with hans__1956 on my Amsterdam tour.

We shot both solo & duo with Aurora Phoenix at his home studio.

He was a wonderful host & made us both feel so welcome.

He was 100% professional, easy to shoot with & I felt comfortable around him at all times.

We had a great chat whilst we shot & the whole shoot was a lot of fun.

I highly recommend & i'd love to shoot with him again.

Aurora Phoenix

Had an incredible duet shoot with Hans at his home studio near Amsterdam with Tania Aresti.

Prior to shooting pre-communication was excellent and everything was super easy to plan and organise. We made a group chat on WhatsApp for all three of us to communicate and organise things. Hans was really good at explaining ideas and even sent some images for reference.

On the day of shooting Hans was welcoming to both me and Tania and gave us a hot drink. We had our own room to change in and Hans had prepared some really incredible clothes for us. We first started with the Birth of Venus and used some really cool wigs, later we did a 1920’s look, Latex, Lingerie, the Can Can, a Victorian look and so many other awesome themes and concepts. Hans even had some really cool props for us and had some really good backdrops and lights too.

Hans was really caring towards us and plenty of breaks were had as well as some good chatting, shooting and laughing. It was such an incredible day and me and Tania just loved the whole thing from start to finish!!!! It was beyond fantastic.

I’d 100000% recommended Hans to both local and travelling models, he’s professional, respectful, organised and creative.

I have had the pleasure of working with Hans twice now.

Hans is a very pleasant, polite and talented person. Our shoot was creative and interesting, we took some amazing shots.

He treated me and the organization of photo shoots with the utmost respect and seriousness, selected styles and outfits.

I am very grateful for such a welcome in Amsterdam and will be just happy to meet and work together again.

Thanks a lot !
