Queer Amsterdam

I’ve worked with Queer Amsterdam for the official 2024 Queer Pride Campaign. In 2024 we photographed queer community organizers that are connected to Queer Amsterdam, as well as community members that wanted to be photographed. The theme of this years pride is resisting, reconnecting and reinventing, all as a community feel which translated into the hands and arm. We stand together.
