PATRICK JANSEN

My name is Patrick Jansen and my journey into photography started in an unexpected way.
I was working with a band, and although I didn’t even own a camera, they handed me one and asked me to capture their moments. That simple opportunity sparked something in me. I saved up, bought my first camera, and started taking photos of friends, family, and small local events.

What began as a hobby quickly turned into a lifestyle. I started shooting parties, weddings, corporate events, and gradually expanded into video content. Along the way, I fell in love with underwater photography and free diving, capturing life beneath the surface and telling stories in a world most people never get to experience.

When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll probably find me staying active. beach tennis, gym, and free diving fuel my sense of adventure. Running has become one of the most important parts of my life. It’s my safe space, where I clear my head, reconnect with myself, and find new inspiration.

Today, my work focuses on lifestyle, storytelling, and creating content that captures authentic energy, emotion, and connection, whether it’s on land, in the water, or in the everyday moments that often mean the most.
