Client: Expresso fashion
Location: Amsterdam
Expresso is a Dutch women’s clothing brand that sponsors a number of top female football players. For this particular shoot, the brand has brought in internationals Sherida Spitse, Kika van Es and Danique Kerkdijk.
These photos were used in an internal campaign to promote the brand’s sponsoring these football players and create a sense of pride in staff. I had at first been hesitant about taking on the assignment, given that I’m not a fashion photographer. However, my client insisted that these photos should showcase the athletes’ personalities and be genuine, not staged.
