Winand Stut Fotografie

As a specialist in business photography based in Merenwijk, Winand Stut combines technical skill with an empathetic approach. He understands that corporate portraits must do more than look neat: they should inspire trust, convey personality and reveal the professional core of employees and leaders. With years of experience working for organisations such as Partners voor Jeugd, Siemens, Portaal, Kone and Woonforte, he delivers images that perform equally well in annual reports and on LinkedIn. What sets Winand apart is his focus on connection and inner quality. He doesn’t just seek a flattering pose, but the moment when someone truly shows themselves. He achieves this by creating a safe, calm atmosphere during the shoot: a brief introduction, clear agreements and a relaxed setting in which even the more reserved colleagues feel at ease. His working method is personal and goal-oriented — always aligned with your organisation’s branding and communication objectives. In practice this means a careful intake where we discuss the desired look, context and use of the images. On location, Winand works efficiently and respectfully with staff; he combines short, directed poses with space for natural, documentary-style moments. The result is corporate portraits that look professional but remain human. He uses lighting, composition and environment deliberately to emphasise the role and personality of the subject. Many clients appreciate his commitment, flexibility and ability to produce strong images even in challenging circumstances. Through long-term collaborations he has come to understand the dynamics of non-profits and the commercial sector, consistently delivering visuals that are both functional and distinctive. Whether it’s LinkedIn headshots, portraits for websites or employee photography for internal communications, Winand provides images with depth and a polished, professional appearance. Based in Merenwijk (Leiden), Winand Stut primarily serves the surrounding region but is open to assignments across the Netherlands.
