Hi, I’m Michelle de Clercq an Amsterdam based photographer and videographer from South Africa.
My journey in photography began at the age of 9 when my dad gifted me a disposable camera during a family holiday trip. Since then I have always carried a camera closely by my side.
My journey then took me to London, where I pursued a Master’s in Photography and Electronic Arts at Goldsmiths University. My time there was filled with darkroom experiments, pushing boundaries with new techniques for developing and printing film.
With a style that is both diverse and contemplative, I explore fashion, portraiture, and still life photography. Each of my images is an artful narrative, bringing out the unique personalities of my subjects and capturing stories with depth and sensitivity.
