Charlotte (b. 1994) is currently based in the Netherlands.
A combination of an international childhood, a father who shot and developed black and white analogue photos and a
deep interest for humanity and why we are who we are has lead to a path of seeking connection and understanding through the medium photography.
Her free work consists mainly of portraits, documentary stories and travel and her commercial work mainly consists of portrait, music and event photography.
Shoots digitally and analogue, with 35mm and 120 film medium format.
