Welcome to my website. I’m Marieke, a photographer based in the Netherlands. Since 2000, I’ve had the privilege of working for clients on a wide range of assignments for magazines, companies, advertising agencies, and foundations - both in the Netherlands and abroad.
Over the years, clients - mostly NGOs such as UNICEF - have commissioned me more than 50 times to travel abroad and document the stories of people around the world. These assignments have also inspired a number of self-initiated projects, which you can explore below.
Many of these projects have been published by leading international media outlets. Five of them have received awards at the prestigious Dutch ‘Zilveren Camera’ competition.
