Through The Eyes Of...
ORANJESTAD - Photography is a fascinating art. The
photographer takes you into his world and makes you
look at a certain topic through his eyes. The reflection
of emotions that counted for that moment touch your
senses and many times a picture tells a story without
speaking. Aruba has talented photographers; young,
eager, creative and with their own, particular style.
Aruba Today presents to you three of these amazing
personalities and a sip of their work.
By Jonathan Petit.
Jonathan Petit
The jolly, always polite Jonathan Petit is a seen photographer on the island. He
seems to be everywhere and he is a flexible person to work with. “I am 24 years
old and a wedding & fashion photographer based on the island of Aruba. My
style is very much concept driven as I work closely with my clients to under-
stand their vision and help them find unique locations that reflect their senti-
ments. Working on a small island never limited my creativity.” - www.instagram.

Anuar Habibe
Anuar Habibe is stoked about culture. Besides his pho-
tography he is the founder of Culturaruba, a platform
for culture and art. Seven years ago he dived into the
world of photography and was even more passion-
ate about this art of expression after reading books
related to photography. “I actually learned more
than how to take pictures. Visual design, laws of per-
ceptual organization and the theory of colors as well
as their influence on emotions.” His style is –in his own
words- story telling, documentary and street photog-
raphy.
