LIDIAN VAN MEGEN

I am a Haarlem based photographer. I've been making portraits of museum owners, tram drivers, famous people, and a lot of models. On a daily basis I am engaged with creating stories - wether it's on Instagram, with still lifes in my interior, in my outfits, collages... But mostly I shoot photo series.

Although it's clearly not only fashion I am into, I love to add this 'editorial vibe' to my pictures. Yes, éven when it's about real estate.

A few personal things about me:

/ I am really curious. The best thing you can do when assigning me to a job, is taking me to a place that is normally hidden from the public eye.

/ I still use a paper agenda (moleskine, of course). 

/ I collect grocery lists from the local Albert Heijn.

/ I have been making collages my whole life. Just a few months ago, I decided to share and sell them online. A classmate from primary school sent me a message: "Are you STILL doing this?"

COLLAGES

Something I love doing in my free time, is making collages. Most of them I make with books and magazines, and sometimes I use my own photography work.

I am selling these in my store.
