Misalou
BY MARJOLEIN CALJOUW
Since 2008 I’ve worked together with international brands, individuals, agencies and creatives.
My background in Visual Arts, marketing and design developed my love for problem-solving, branding and storytelling. It largely contributes to how I approach photography and videography.
I really believe that when you have a beautiful product / service that can help, inspire and add value to other peoples life, you are making a positive impact in the world! That's why I love to surround myself with beautiful things and let them inspire me.

I use a second camera to make photos and leave my main camera on my stabilizer. Love that.

PORTABLE LIGHT
SmallRig Cob 100B
Highly recommend this to everyone who asks what kind of light I’m using. This is so small, so powerful and it has a mount battery that charges your laptop, phone everything.

This is a gamechanger. Set-up system is 30 sec. Gives beautiful soft diffusion.
