This amazing Dutch photographer says he’s passionate about landscapes, which are indeed, exquisite, but his human portraits hold a same sort of expectant presence–all of his images speak of a journey taken. Sander Koot’s series Back from the Future is a pairing of new portraits of the individual with an older picture of that person from years past. This photographer is as particular about portraiture as he is about the perfect landscape shot; he only photographs individuals after interviewing them. “In this project, I ask people to find old portraits of themselves, of which they have good memories,” says Koot. “When talking to them about the picture, you see them reliving the happy moment. Only after I know all the details about the past of that picture, (do) we start the shoot.” Lose yourself for a moment in the brilliant photography of Sander Koot at Sanderkoot.nl.
