Wow; it’s been three weeks since I posted! Guess which New Year’s resolution turned out to be unrealistic!
But there’s good reason: I’ve been working hard on a new website for Studio Rogier Bos. Have a look: it’s up and running!
Tentmakers?
In case you don’t know, Sophie and I work for Christian Associates — and we have our own work/business. You could call us ‘tentmakers’; like the apostle Paul who made tents to provide for his own needs, we provide for most of our own income through different endeavors, while we also do various things for ministry and church. Sophie works in a restaurant, and I have a business called Studio Rogier Bos. Together this provides for roughly 80% of our family-income. The other 20% comes through the generosity of friends and churches who support us financially.
Just what is Studio Rogier Bos?
Basically I have been working free-lance as a photographer and designer since 1998. Back then the internet-bubble was still growing and I developed websites. In the last two years I have offered four services: photography, web-development, graphic and print design, and video (everything from recording to editing to broadcast).
I enjoy all four of these media, but more and more I like photography the best. That’s where my real passion is: light, colours, contrast, composition, technology, timing… it all fascinates me. In the last two years I have invested a lot of time and energy in skill-development and equipment.
Five different kinds of photography
My new website demonstrates this development. Rather than just offering ‘photography’ as a service I now offer five distinct types of photography to potential clients — and I believe I have a portfolio that shows I can deliver. They are:
Event photography: everything from conferences to concerts and from political conventions to parties.
Wedding and bridal photography: I would love record your day in a beautiful album and can offer you lots of creative ideas that will make your wedding unique!
Portraits and model-photography: I have invested in a mobile studio that allows me to photograph you in your setting with superb light and shadows. I can also create large high quality prints.
- Additionally I offer product photography
- Lastly, I photograph architecture. You might think photographing a building is easy (‘it doesn’t move’); but good architectural photography is surprisingly challenging and requires special skill and technology – which I can now offer.
So — have a look and tell me what you think! And yes, I am open (and hoping) for business!
Gefeliciteerd Rogier, zet er erg mooi en professioneel uit!!

If the site is all about photography, it always has to be eye-catching! I mean, the photos aren't just the main attraction, but also the website design. Good thing you were able to match the company's services with a good web design.
