About Christiaan van Heijst

Born and raised in the Netherlands in 1983, I was drawn to the sky and decided from an early age I wanted to become a pilot. Currently flying the Boeing 747 Freighter, I find myself privileged to enjoy a life in the sky.

Documenting and sharing the world from above is my biggest drive for photography, convinced that every person should see and enjoy the breathtaking views and wonders that I am experiencing when aloft.
