Empty Room Photography

Jan Von Holleban's "Where We Laughed" is Full of Emotion

Not many photographers can capture a tender moment like Jan Von Holleban can. Trend Hunter has featured his work before, and I’m sure it won’t be the last time either. The majority of his elegant pieces are photographed in his homeland of southwest Germany.

The particular collection shown in the above gallery is called “Where We Laughed” and it documents empty places where tender moments have been shared between lovers and friends in the past. It is evident that Jan Von Holleban has a maturity and simplicity that not many other photographers can compete with.
