Rick van der Vlies, born in 1996, photographer and digital retoucher. Creating fashion, sporty and portrait images for advertising and editorial purposes. Home based in the area of Rotterdam and an office in Amsterdam.
The ambition to become a professional, started out relatively young by photographing the streets of London and Rotterdam. Life out on the streets remained a source of inspiration as his career progressed. Meanwhile his other passion started to find its way into Rick’s work as a new form of inspiration: martial arts. The aesthetics, the intimacy and dynamics that he can find in this sport.
Rick’s work can be defined as punchy, up close and colourful.
