BIOGRAPHY

My name is Kathleen and I was born on January 16, 1989 in Spijkenisse, near Rotterdam. From an early age, I had a passion for horses. At the age of seven, I started riding and when I turned eleven I got my first horse. I enjoyed showjumping and eventing, but eventually turned to dressage. Over the years, I competed several horses up to ZZ-Z level and rode national Junior competitions.

In 2014, I launched my photography business. What started out as hobby that made a little extra money on the side, turned into a great company with loyal customers and beautiful shows to shoot on our calendar.

​

Nowadays, I live in West-Brabant, in a village called Oud Gastel to be precise. It's here where I got married to my partner Arne in 2023. In addition to my work as a photographer, I run a dressage stable and breeding farm called Hoeve Noordenwind, together with my husband. A number of foals are born here every year and we train horses. We also regularly have talented horses for sale, mostly bred by us. At the moment we are still renovating the characteristic farm.
