About
My name is Guido van de Water, a passionate nature and landscape photographer based in the Nijmegen region of the Netherlands. With over 40 years of life experience and a deep-rooted love for capturing the beauty of our world, I work full-time in photography. My mission? To capture atmosphere and emotion in every shot and tell stories that resonate with people.
OM System
As an ambassador for OM System, I collaborate with one of the leading brands in the photography industry. This partnership allows me to work with cutting-edge technology while sharing my knowledge and experiences at festivals, events, and workshops across the Netherlands. I also regularly deliver talks at both large and small camera retailers, inspiring audiences to elevate their photography skills.
YouTube
My passion for sharing knowledge extends beyond live events: on my own YouTube channel, I release weekly videos about photography. Here, I take viewers on adventures, share tips and techniques, and inspire them to discover the beauty of nature through their lens.
Awards
In 2024, I was honored to finish in the top 3 of the National Geographic Photography Contest, a highlight of my career. Underneath here you can find the top 3 image with comments from the judges.
Additionally, I write articles for Natuurfotografie Magazine, and my work has been published in leading magazines such as DigiFotoPro, Columbus Magazine, and Olympus Passion. One of the articles about me can be seen at the bottem of this page.
Inspiration
With my photography, I aim not only to create unique images but also to inspire others. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced photographer, I share my knowledge and expertise openly to help you capture even better photos. For me, photography is more than just a profession; it’s a way to tell stories, capture emotion, and leave a lasting impact.
Let’s capture the world together, one photo at a time.
