A piece of history

In 2013, we broadened our offerings by partnering with a communication agency to create web-based content. Business flourished until the pandemic presented a challenge.
However, thanks to a loyal client base, Fotomatiz weathered the storm and is now back on track, offering a comprehensive range of photography and digital media services.

Fotomatiz by Jerome van Passel
Fotomatiz was founded by the Dutch photographer Jerome van Passel. His career began in front of the camera, a sought-after model for youth magazines. But it was behind the lens where his true passion ignited. A camera alway has been his constant companion, capturing life moments, and still has boxes full of travel stories and everyday observations on film.
The year 2003 marked a turning point. Trading analog for digital, he marveled at the instant gratification of the Nikon D100. Leading the marketing team at Cofrusa, a major Murcian food manufacturer at the time, the digital camera’s speed and quality revolutionized his approach. Product photography requests poured in, and soon, the Nikon was traded up for the versatility of Canon’s EOS series, ultimately culminating in the powerful 5D.
Still imaging solutions
Since 2008, he has combined his than award-winning photography skills with a deep understanding of marketing and technology. This unique blend allows him to not only visualize clients visions, but translate it into impactful visuals that resonate with audiences and drive results.
A return to his passion!
After years of leading Fotomatiz, he is thrilled to refocus his energy on documentary and event photography – his creative roots. This shift allows him to offer a more personalized approach, working closely with clients to capture the essence of their stories.
The Fotomatiz name will continue to represent his commitment to high-quality photography, while this new chapter lets him reconnect with the intimate world of documentary and event work.
