Jurre Rompa is known for his distinctive portrait and storytelling style. He captures his subjects with mostly natural light, which leads to an acknowledgeable layer of authenticity and depth to his images. Always fascinated by the narratives, he explores the stories and lives of the subjects that he photographs. In his commercial work the same creative sentiment shines through, resulting in images that are bright and full of life.
