Thank you for visiting.

Bart Verweij is a documentary photographer who has been based in Laos since 2004. With over two decades of experience, Bart has built a career centered on authentic and compelling storytelling, particularly through his work with international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) and development agencies. His photography captures the essence of life in Laos—its people, landscapes, and culture—by highlighting the human stories behind every image.

Throughout his career, Bart has collaborated with a wide range of prominent organizations, including UNICEF, IFAD, GIZ, SNV, MAG, WFP, WHO, The Fred Hollows Foundation, KfW, The Australian Government (DFAT), PanAust, ILO, IFRC, The World Bank, IFC, AFD, Lux Development, Swisscontact, and many private enterprises. His work has helped these organizations convey their mission and impact by focusing on the communities and individuals they serve. Bart’s documentary style ensures that each image carries a narrative, turning complex issues into accessible and emotionally resonant stories.

Though deeply rooted in Laos, Bart is available for projects throughout the Asia-Pacific region. His extensive experience working in diverse cultural and geographical settings enables him to capture powerful visuals that resonate with both local and international audiences. Whether documenting long-term development projects or capturing short-term campaigns, Bart’s goal is always to use his lens to give voice to the stories that matter.
