Olivier Tuinier (1982) is an Amsterdam-based photographer focused on analog documentary and street photography, with a soft spot for faded glory.

"For many years, I moved from one place to another without paying much attention to my surroundings. A few years ago, I started carrying a small analog camera on my walks. This simple change made me more conscious of the world around me. Since then, I've made it a habit to take a camera wherever I go.

As I walk through the streets, there are always things that catch my eye: a brightly colored door on a gray building, an unattractive house among beautiful ones, a lone plant standing by itself. I'm drawn to the unspectacular and the unfiltered."
