Portraits for Lesvos is a project by Michiel Stock, award-winning photographer and Present Mover. He offers a creative photoshoot for 100 EUR, of which 50% is donated to Stichting Bootvluchteling en The Present.

Portraits for Lesvos is Michiel's own initiative to combine entrepreneurship with doing good. He was inspired by photographer and refugee Yousif Alshewaili, whose story and courage made him unable to look away and led him to find a way to contribute. 

Michiel was looking for someone to create a website for this project, including the copy and design. Luckily, Carlijn Pluijmakers-Emmen is part of The Present and was inspired by Michiel's project! With her agency REDRUM she decided to invest time in the development of the website for Portraits for Lesvos. Fantastic!
