Gijs Proost is the corporate photography specialist in Bergen op Zoom. He creates business portraits and profile photos with attention to lighting, coaching and authenticity.
As a specialist in corporate photography and business portraits I combine my three great passions: people, technique and light. In Bergen op Zoom and the surrounding region I help organisations present their team professionally and recognisably — from LinkedIn profile photos to portraits for intranet and company presentations. My approach is personal: I look for the psychology behind the portrait and work so that each subject feels and appears at their best. I truly believe everyone can be photogenic. That’s why I spend a lot of time during a session on coaching and building confidence. Instead of rigid poses I provide guidance that invites a natural posture; this produces images that feel authentic and trustworthy. Lighting is crucial: with targeted light and considered posing I emphasise strong features and soften unwanted accents — not by heavy retouching, but through good lighting and composition. I photograph people for organisations across a range of sectors and adapt the visual style to your corporate identity and communication goals. For Huisartsenzorggroep Breda, Schipper Academy and H&L Accountants I created portraits with varying backgrounds and atmospheres — from crisp white profile photos for the medical field to darker, more serious portraits for recruitment campaigns. That experience has taught me how a consistent photo series contributes to trust and recognisability for your organisation. The process is practical and client-focused: we start with a short intake to establish objective, tone of voice and desired look. During the shoot I provide calm, effective coaching so employees feel at ease quickly. After the session I deliver carefully selected and subtly retouched images that are ready for use on your website, intranet or social media.
