Myrthe Mosterman (1983) discovered her passion for the technical side of filmmaking during her final year of Film Studies at the University of Amsterdam. After graduating with a Master’s degree, she continued her education at the Dutch Film Academy, where she specialised in cinematography.

Since graduating in 2012, Myrthe has worked internationally on documentaries, commercials, and both feature-length and short narrative films. Travel plays an important role in her work and life, often running parallel to the projects she shoots. Her debut feature film, GOUD, earned her the Gouden Kalf Award for Best Cinematography, and since 2018 she has shot at least one feature film every year.

Her work has been recognised with awards including a Gouden Kalf, an ADCN Award, and a ShortCutz Award, and has screened at major international festivals such as Cannes, Berlinale, Ciclope, Tribeca, and Palm Springs.

Working across a wide range of genres and styles, Myrthe is known for her adaptable and intuitive approach. Her cinematography carries a personal and intimate quality; she describes her style as naturalistic and poetic, with a strong sensitivity to light, texture, and atmosphere. Driven by curiosity, she continually searches for the visual language that best serves each story.

Myrthe lives in Amsterdam with her son and her husband, a writer. If possible, she spends a significant amount of time in their second home in France, where being close to nature offers space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect, playing an important role in her creative process.
