Arnold van West - Visual Storyteller in Hospitality
After my hotel school education, my career began as a food manager on cruise ships in the Caribbean. The international cuisine, vibrant atmosphere and visual splendour of the hospitality world always attracted me. Back in the Netherlands, I decided to capture that passion with my camera and specialised in hospitality photography.
What made this industry so special was the enormous diversity of assignments. From food and travel to portrait, interior and reportage photography - I was asked for everything. That versatility shaped my outlook as a photographer.
Now I want to share work from my archive with the world. Anyone can take a picture, but not everyone is a photographer. For me, photography is about capturing atmosphere, emotion and experience - and I love to share that with you.
