Which camera did you use therefor? I made it with a camera of my father. When did you start photographing musicians? in 1972 I made my first photo of a band called “Solution” What do you find so fascinating about musicians? I always wanted to do something with music, but I couldn't play an instrument, and that is why I started to shoot it.
- 6. ROBIN UTRECHT. A photographer who’s become famous for winning the silver camera. Actually you didn’t want to become a photographer, but you wanted to go to the Film Academy. How did that became this? I was in the last round of the film Academy in Amsterdam. There they found me qualified for the image production, but not as a cameraman. When I said not to want that direction they said they found my images very photographic. Photography Was nothing to me? Then I signed up for the Art Academy in Den Haag. I was adopted at the 2nd admission round With what kind of cameras do you photograph? I use two Nikon D4's and also a Nikon D3X. You are one of the most famous photographers of the Netherlands. You have won Many awards and you have world famous photos taken that are on all front pages. Do you still have to prove yourself? Yes I do. Each topic is a new topic. If you do not provide good pictures, then they are also not decreased because they will choose someone else. You are as good as your last picture.
- 7. It is currently a quite hard time for photographers, because there is more offer for amateurs and because economically it’s not really going well. What do you notice there of? I think a professional photographer is still sufficiently distinctive. Personally I don’t notice much of this. Would you recommend potential young photographers to go to this section no going despite the deteriorating conditions? Of course. If your passion is photography, you should definitely do it. But if you do for money, you shouldn't do it!
