PHOTOGRAPHY RAOUL SOMERS

Hi there, I’m Raoul, the artistic mind behind this website. I was born in 1966 and raised in Amstelveen, a quaint village near Amsterdam.

After completing my studies, I worked as a photo assistant in Amsterdam for several years. I am grateful to have spent over two decades living and working in Luxembourg with my wife, Rosa, our three boys (Alessio, Liam, and Lorenzo), and our feline friends Viktor, Pablo, and Mia.

Every day, I wake up excited and grateful to engage in something new. Photography has been my lifelong passion for over 40 years, and I am fortunate to make a living out of it. My goal is to create visually stunning photographs and evoke an emotional response from the viewer through the content of my images.

My photography style focuses on capturing real people, events, and places, where the subjects take centre stage. I find inspiration in authentic individuals, creative collaborations, personal stories, music, my children, my 35-year-old Fiat Ritmo Cabrio, good food, warm sunshine, long walks with my favourite podcasts and even your wildest ideas.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you and having meaningful conversations. Thank you for showing an interest in my work.
