Gerda Koning

My photography education began in Amsterdam in 2008 and continued that same year in Utrecht, where I completed my studies in 2012. During these years, I was able to delve into the various creative facets of the profession and develop a broad photographic foundation.

I focus on travel- and wildlife photography and portraits of people and animals. Additionally, I create fine art photography, where preparation forms an important part of the process. Carefully selecting locations, observing light, and patiently waiting for the right moment play a major role in this.

My photography is a quest for stillness: the moment between movement and thought, between light and emotion. With my images, I try to capture tranquility, atmosphere and attention in a timeless image.
