The artist
Meet Amber Den Oudsten, photographer
Amber den Oudsten is a Dutch photographer. Her journey in photography began about eighteen years ago, photographing bands on stage, where the play of light and energy fascinated her.
Today she photographs people, brands and interiors. She describes her style as timeless, warm and powerful.
Travel is where she feels most free, preferably on a road trip. Her travel photographs are made into wall art, and Helm + Oar is one of the places that prints them.
The moment
The Laguna: the story behind the photograph
High above Laguna Beach, palms and flowering plants lean toward the Pacific. The water is calm, and the sky is soft with cloud.
It is the view you pull over for. Amber calls travel the ultimate feeling of freedom, and on her prints page she writes that when you stop and look around, this life is pretty amazing.
Hang it where you want to remember that, every day.
At home
Sunlit wall art for the living room, and beyond
Warm, bright and easy to live with, these photographs bring a road trip home.
In the living room
Hang The Laguna above the sofa, sized to about two-thirds of its width. Sea blues and sandy greens suit linen and light wood.
In an entryway
A tall print like Side Streets turns a narrow wall into a quiet first impression.
As a pair
Side Streets and Lake Pleasant share the same desert palette, so they hang well side by side.
