Joost de Waal Fotografie

As a specialist in business photography in Gouda, Joost de Waal combines technical expertise with a passion for clear, considered imagery. Working as a freelance photographer, he draws on broad experience — from spontaneous street photography to carefully directed studio shoots — and uses that experience to create corporate images that inspire trust and strengthen your brand. Why choose Joost for your corporate photography? His process always begins with a conversation: your requirements, the organisation’s tone of voice and the practical context are discussed in detail. That preparation translates into corporate portraits, LinkedIn photos and employee photography that are both representative and authentic. Joost works on location at your company, in a mobile studio or in a fixed studio so the images perfectly match the desired look — from strong and corporate to approachable and human. What makes his approach distinctive? Joost places great emphasis on composition and lighting. The end result should be a balanced combination of form, light and expression. This attention to detail produces professional profile photos and business portraits that stand out without feeling forced. For teams and employee photography he creates a relaxed atmosphere: brief guidance, calm communication and respect for each person’s individuality, so full-team photos look natural and coherent. How does Joost collaborate with you? After an intake he provides a practical plan: choice of location, preferred backgrounds and number of portraits. During the shoot the focus is on speed and comfort, with room for variation so you can choose from multiple styles. Post-processing stays true to the original images; subtle colour and contrast corrections and a professional finish ensure your photos are ready to use on LinkedIn, websites, brochures and internal communications. Based in Gouda, Joost delivers professional business photography for local companies and organisations in the region.
