About me
I’m Pieter Janssen, a professional photographer based in Porto, Portugal. Originally from The Netherlands, so if you’re looking to practice your Dutch while learning photography, you’ve come to the right place!
I have lived and worked in Hong Kong and Vietnam.
One of my personal career highlights was working with the Dutch Embassy during the visit of the future King and Queen of the Netherlands to Hanoi, where I had the privilege of capturing their meetings with the Vietnamese president and prime minister, as well as their cultural engagements.
In 2024, I relocated to Porto, Portugal, where I continue my work as a professional photographer.
My work has been featured in a variety of publications, including books, magazines, travel brochures, and advertising campaigns. In Hanoi, I had the honour of exhibiting my photography in several galleries.
In addition to my photography, I started doing photography tours in Hoi An, Vietnam. Over the years, I’ve led countless photo tours, helping others discover and develop their own photographic skills.
The tours
These days, I focus primarily on teaching photography, though I still take on occasional assignments. My approach to teaching is casual, informative, and most importantly, fun. I believe that learning should be enjoyable, and it’s essential that everyone walks away with new knowledge—while having a great time. Above all, my goal is to ignite your passion for photography. If you’re looking for guided photo tours in Porto, I’m here to help you capture the city’s stunning sights.
Being from The Netherlands, I can also do my tours in Dutch. Apart from tours, I also offer photography workshops in Porto. If you are wondering what to do on a rainy day in Porto, just contact me and we can do it anywhere, even at your hotel. When it is dry, you might as well book a private tour.
Why the Kiki Photo Tours? It’s my daughter’s name.
Reviews
You can check out reviews of my tours in Vietnam on Tripadvisor and Google — they’re full of happy faces and glowing feedback.
Unfortunately I could not bring those lovely reviews with me to Porto, so I have to start from scratch again.
See you on tour!
