This is the about.me page of Fabian Knetemann.

In the early years of 2000 Fabian got his first digital camera for his birthday, and after taking a few photo's with his new camera he was hooked on to photography. Seeing the world completely different through his camera lens, he began seeing the world and his surroundings in a different perspective. The day after his birthday he sent a photograph of a beautifull sundown with air-balloons on the background to a Dutch weather programm (TV Rijnmond). That very same day this photo got on national television, and he never stopped photographing after that and carried his camera literally everywhere around.
Getting familiar with his camera he bought a new camera, his first digital SLR camera. This opened yet another new world, and besides seeing the world more clearer than before he started to use Adobe Photoshop. Stunting around and manipulating digital photography became a mildly obsessed hobby, he created the most amazing and sometimes bizar compilations of photo's and objects.
Meanwhile getting trough high school he found out about other programms in the Adobe Suite Collection, like Dreamweaver and Premiere. Creating websites in the early stage of the internet in Dreamweaver, and some movie projects in Premiere on the side. Combining these two, creating slick layouts in photoshop and the programming in dreamweaver, resulted in the birth of a webdesigner. During high school Fabian created more websites, like Dutch websites for musicians Katie Melua, Gabriel Rios, Orishas and so on.

While starting in college these aforementioned activities in designing came to a simmering. In 2008/2009 Fabian were eligible with the faculty association and joined a new committee, which focused on starting a new magazine for it's students. As an editor and chief designer Fabian designed the layouts and basic for this magazine, and became more well-known with yet another Adobe program: Indesign. During this college year Fabian also designed all the promotional flyers for the faculty association.
In the subsequent study year Fabian joined the board as treasurer of the faculty association. Besides the accounting and financial experience he has gained that study year, he took his designing experience to the next promotional level height. Promotionals such as pens, balloons, cards and even stickers.
