About Sebastian van Schoor's work:

Photo Theme:

What the mind wants and what the world gives

Photo Story:

This picture was taken at a student formal, candidly so. There was only one lighter among all the couples and every one of the guys wanted a light for their cigarette. Next moment they all swarmed towards the one girl that was lighting her boyfriend’s cigarette. I believe this photo however shows much more than just the above, it emphasises our need for instant gratification and how our earthly desires aren’t unique, however the world can only accommodate so many of us at once.

How long has Sebastian van Schoor loved photography:

2 years professionally but roughly 5 years

How they discovered their passion for photography:

It all started in December 2022 whilst i was on vacation with family and friends, i had my dad’s camera on hand and just started taking random photos, next moment i found myself taking quite a bit of photos of everything and everyone. I instantly found myself drawn to colour theory and concepts such as the rule of thirds and the fibonacci sequence. Next thing I knew, people were asking me to take their photos and they were willing to pay. The rest is history…
