Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

My name is Arnoud Roelfsema, music and audio producer and photographer. After four years at university, I scoured many an office looking for a place that suited me. After just one year, I knew: this is not for me. I wanted to create things! Music, photos, videos, and preferably together with other people. So I changed course and started my own company in 2024: BK City Studios! Since then, I have been working in and around Utrecht with bands, mixing recordings, creating audio tours and podcasts, and capturing special moments with my camera. I pay particular attention to personal interaction, as I want to make the people I work with as comfortable as possible. Whether this leads to that perfect live performance or the most beautiful wedding photo: my goal is always to capture the authenticity of the people I work with!
