Things I Have Seen

Walking every street of my hometown, Amersfoort, while photographing every nook and cranny. Documenting the things I see along the way.

It's all out there, right now

A good beach has white sand, they tell you. Preferably as finely grained as possible. Like a powder that's sprinkled on the edges of the land. The frosting on the cake, if you will.

The glorious, life-invigorating act of walking

When I first landed on Craig Mod's website and read he describes himself as a 'writer, photographer, and walker,' I was a little confused. What the hell does it mean to 'be a walker'?

A documentary project about Dutch festival and club culture finding its way back to relevance during pandemic times.

My six favorite Fujifilm film simulation recipes

I think we can all agree that Fujifilm's film simulations are amazing. That's why I have created six film simulation recipes that have been living on both my Fujifilm X100V and X-Pro3 for the better part of a year now.


Hi, my name is Mitch. I'm a photographer and writer from The Netherlands. I have a monthly newsletter called ‘Dialogue’ about photography, walking and exploration. I also have a YouTube channel. I am currently walking every street of my hometown, while recording GPS data to track my progress, and documenting everything I see along the way with my camera. Visit the dedicated project page to learn more.

Highlighted projects

I focus my photography around personal projects. Most of which take between a couple of months or several years to finish. A selection of the ones I'm most proud of can be found below.
