Very personal quotes from the athletes complete the images, complementing the book as a whole as this concept has never before been released in the world of sport.
Stefan Geukens needs no introduction as a sport photographer when it comes to the world of motocross. The 40-year-old from Meerhout, Belgium has been involved in this exciting motorsport since 1990: He has produced work for magazines and newspapers from all over the globe and as acted as PR Manager for top riders and teams.
“In all those years I have shot a lot of photos. As a passionate photographer I was very rarely pleased with how my images were portrayed in magazines. I found it a great honour to have my work published in some of the world’s most famous media, but still I would I have liked to have seen them depicted in a slightly different way. After long consideration, I decided to take the best images from the past 20 years of my career and bundle them in a ‘coffee table book’ with the proceeds being donated to a good cause.
For once in my career I would like to use all my sport contacts, business contacts and media contacts to raise funds for this good cause”
Besides his best photos from the past 20 years, Stefan Geukens also reveals special, spectacular photo sessions in his coffee table book.
De (sport)fotograaf uit Meerhout bundelde de beste beelden uit zijn 20-jarige carrière en vulde ze aan met nieuw, uniek materiaal. Zo mocht hij als enige Tom Boonen privé gaan fotograferen in zijn tuin/vijver en liet hij F16-gevechtsvliegtuigen over de hoofden van Stefan Everts en co scheuren. De opbrengst gaat naar twee goede doelen.
In het boek staan ook prachtige en unieke foto’s van andere Belgische topsporters zoals Stefan Everts, Sven Nys, Freddy Loix en de Clouseau-broertjes Koen en Kris Wauters,…
