I'm Roman, an award-winning urban photographer born and raised in the enchanting south of the Netherlands. I take unique photographs of undisclosed abandoned places. When I began my journey into urban photography, I mostly saw empty, abandoned and decaying buildings. It didn't take long for curiosity to strike. What was the history of these buildings? Who lived there? What were they used for, and why were they abandoned? This curiosity created a strong bond between me and urban photography, and I've since visited so many beautiful places around the world. The opportunity to peek behind closed doors is a truly unique experience, both relaxing and seductive. I immerse myself in the environment, but I also observe every step and listen carefully to every sound, trying not to attract attention. I specialize in capturing the interior and exterior of a variety of buildings in a unique way, working only with natural light.
