My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Greece | Monday, July 1, 2013 | 5 photos

Adam Adams [Amsterdam The Netherlands, 1962]

I studied Sociology [1982] and Policy of Art [1992]
For almost 30 years I have worked for third party companies including The Dutch Film Museum, The University of Amsterdam, and ING Group, before focusing on writing and photography.
So far I have published two photo books, one novel and a poetry bundle through Blurb.
From 2011 until 2013 I initiated a photo exhibition project to portrait all 180 nationalities in Amsterdam with the best portraitists in the Netherlands, like A. Corbijn, R. Dijkstra and 40 others. Due to the financial crisis I wasn't able to raise enough funding and put a hold on this project for the time being.
I am now working on a new poetry book and two photography series that were shot in Greece. The pictures I send to you I made last springtime in Santorini Greece.
I am a passionate photographer. I love nature and exploring our planet. I find it fascinating to do peoples' portraits and street photography. I have very good technical skills, an eye for composition and detail. All my photographs are made with a deep understanding of human nature.
Working for National Geographic would be a dream come true.
