A little bit about the photographer.

Name:  Nico de Wal
Date of Birth: March 8, 1978
Country of origin:  
The Netherlands (aka Holland)
Country of residence:
United States of America (Minneapolis, MN)

Nico has been living in the United States since September of 2004, but he
was born and raised in The Netherlands. The country is best known for
tulips, cheese, wooden shoes and windmills, to name but a few clichés,
although most of them are true...

The name New Amsterdam Photography comes from the former name of
New York City. Before the British took over, the Dutch had founded New York
in 1624 under the name of New Amsterdam, after the Dutch capital. In
1664, the British renamed the colony New York, after the king's brother,
James, Duke of York.
