David van Dartel

David van Dartel (1995) is a Dutch photographer based in Rotterdam. Having grown up in a small village in the countryside, Van Dartel’s love of portraiture and landscape photography evolved naturally while he explored the fields and forests around him. His visual aesthetic is gentle yet atmospheric, with emotive photographs that depict the power of intimacy in our relationships.
