Pie Aerts is a Dutch photographer residing in Amsterdam but spending most of his time documenting his travels around the world. He loves long road trips, the universe, sunlight and the old days, but above all else, telling stories. Being a kid there was nothing he loved more than drawing. It taught him to use his imagination and create stories within the four edges of a canvas. Years later, in his work as a photographer, he uses that visual story-telling in an attempt to emotionally connect viewers with what he sees, whether it is people, wildlife or landscapes.
