Tango Paparazzo in La Cadena

Guess who had the honour of appearing in the tango magazine La Cadena, the reference for tango in the Netherlands & Belgium? I was interviewed by Karin Venverloo about how I started taking pictures and dancing, what I like about it, …

Artikel in La Cadena

It’s written in Dutch, so if you can read in Dutch, check out the PDF: Aan de rand van de tango. The La Cadena magazine is published monthly and writes about all aspects of tango: the teachers, the music, the experience. Jan Dirk and Ina have been using my pictures for over two years now, and every now and then I make the cover page. If you want to check out if you like it: they have a 3 editions for 11€ promotion for Belgium!

The pictures in the article were taken by my two photographer friends Bart & Christophe.

Bruno & Mariangeles came to give a demo at the Tangueria. They’re a nice dance couple to see (check the video below) and their three dances were much appreciated. It was also nice for me to be back in the Tangueria, it had been a while.

Brussels Tango Festival: wrap-up

Brussels Tango Festival: closing milonga @ Maalbeek

This was the 6th edition of the Brussels Tango Festival and every year it seems to get better. The organisation of the festival was impeccable, the maestros were impressive, the venues were excellent, the DJs rocked and the dancing was finger-lickin’ good. Also, I’m quite happy with the pictures I took. I was privileged to capture quite a lot of beauty on pixel. I was not alone either: Arndt, Lucien, Ishka, Lilia, Wicky and others also took great pictures.

So I’d like to thank:
