harderfotografie

As a dedicated photographer based in Meppel, Leo de Harder brings decades of experience and a genuine sense for working with people to his corporate photography. Under the name harderfotografie he specialises in business portraits and corporate photography, with a clear preference for on-location work: no studio setups, but portraits made at your premises, within your business processes, or outdoors where your organisation presents itself best. Why choose harderfotografie for your corporate photography? Leo combines more than thirty-five years of photographic experience with a calm, personal approach. His background in portrait work — and in capturing people on important days during wedding reportage — means he quickly establishes rapport with colleagues and executives. The result is corporate imagery that looks spontaneous, professional and human: exactly what LinkedIn profiles, website bios and internal communications need. His working method is practical and personal. In a short introductory conversation you discuss objectives, the desired look and suitable locations in or around Meppel. Leo then chooses the right moments and light conditions; he often works with natural light and seeks quiet, representative backgrounds that match your corporate identity. During the shoot he creates a relaxed atmosphere with a calm, conversational style so that even less camera-confident employees feel at ease. The technical side and post-processing are professional yet subtle: with professional equipment (including a Nikon D800 and a range of high-quality lenses) Leo produces images that are technically strong and then carefully selected and edited so the final deliverables are ready for both online use and print. He delivers business portraits for LinkedIn, management profiles, staff photography and general corporate image libraries. Because harderfotografie is locally rooted in Meppel and active in the community (including voluntary photography work for RTV Meppel), Leo understands the importance of local recognisability and reliable collaboration. Do you want corporate portraits that are both professional and human? Get in touch for a conversation — Leo is happy to collaborate and creates bespoke corporate photography, at home in photography.
