After almost 20,000 km of client projects across Europe, a change of pace: photographing the running action at IRONMAN Knokke 2026 with my Nikon Z8 and Tamron 35–150mm.

A quick real-world editing test comparing Luminar Neo, Lightroom, and Adobe Camera Raw during a fast food photography shoot. Minimal setup, no client edits — just honest results.

I’ve wanted to try infrared photography for a long time. After converting my Nikon and getting the right filter, I finally took it for a walk through Bruges. Here’s what happened.

From nightly winter walks in Bruges to holding a printed book in my hands, Bruges at Night was never planned, it simply happened. This black & white photo book captures the city’s quiet, moody beauty after dark. For now, it’s available in my Etsy shop, waiting to bring a little Bruges into your hands.

In April, I joined Bruges’ Veggie Challenge with a dish named “Velvety Forest Stew with Creamy Potato Clouds” - and won! The recipe, along with others, made it into a charming booklet shared during a press event at Bruges City Hall. Here's a peek behind the scenes, plus my latest culinary experiment: paprika waffles topped with green ajvar. Bon appétit!

After 40 days working on my personal “House” project, I’m back - bsilvia.com got a fresh look, I welcomed a new client, and I’m sharing the gear that lets me shoot stunning real estate photos without a drone. Also, if you're booking in June, there's a sweet discount waiting for you. Don’t miss it!

The site is finally live - with a shiny new design! I’m still polishing the edges, but no more maintenance mode. Plus, a 10% April discount is on - before I hit the road in May and June!
