Really strong emotional photos and a lot of fun! Thanks. Might I suggest looking at Alain Laboille who does similar work? Many thanks. https://laboile.com

Haunting and beautiful images. Storytelling that far surpasses traditional portraiture.

These are tremendous photographs. They have bits of Sally Mann, Debbie Fleming Caffery, Eugene Richards and Ernesto Bazan. Truly amazing work and so heartfelt. Thank you!

She has some images that simply have to have copied Laboille. Indeed he wrote her a letter about it https://www.fichier-pdf.fr/2016/07/26/en-nikiboon-3ok-1/

Very interesting. Do you know how this dispute / argument ended?

Andrew Hull's avatar

I can’t seem to find it now. She wrote what seemed a sincere response that she wasn’t copying. My personal view is that it seems really, really similar

Very nice work by Niki Boon, thank you! If you like this, you should also have a look at Carla Kogelman, Dutch documentary and family photographer!

Thank you, Francois. Would you be so kind and send me your recommendation via email?

Love seeing portraits that capture the essence of their subjects in a real and honest way. The affection of the photographer for their family shines through despite the starkness of black and white, and without being cloying.
