"A Flat 6 Love Affair" - Bart Kuykens B&W Photography

Flemish photographer, Bart Kuykens combines his passion for B&W photography with Porsche in his table book, A Flat 6 Love Affair.
Limiting himself to only 7 editions to spell out PORSCHE, he invites those who share his passion to meet him for a photography shoot that is as casual as it is productive.
Based in Europe, Bart typically uses industrial settings to compliment the cars, however the upcoming volumes aim to go international. He only shoots on black and white film and with a Leica M6 & M7.
The books are just as much about the cars as they are the people and Bart hopes that rather being lost in the digital space, the books will make his project just as timeless as the photos that are featured within.

The story-telling and the filming style really bring out the owners and the cars. I love how you pace these films, it hooks you into them, you just want it to go on for an hour!

[@devinlamoreaux5026]

My favorite one yet. Bart's photos and genuine nature is incredible and you guys shared that perfectly in this. Great work!

[@PraemIo]

+Devin L'Amoreaux Thanks Devin!

[@danielmelo8598]

This channel has potential, pure quality. Keep up with the good work!

[@MindDezign]

I love this guys additude and I love black and white for vintage cars. I also love love Love night time shots. This guy is great! From the 1950s till today Porsche above all manufacturers. Have always been passionate about building the best Driving Tool a driver can have...a Porsche. And that is why it has the largest loyal enthusiasts World Wide. When everybody faultered over emissions and crash bumpers , many closed their doors or couldnt keep the performance competetive , Porsche always Engineered its why successfully thru the challenges , decade after decade. Bringing the 911 into 2019 brilliant as ever.

this video has so many lessons To me the most valuable one is when he says because he doesn't have a lot of money he has to sell his current Porsche to acquire the next one, which reveals that wealth isn't necessary to have a fulfilling life Imagine if most people realized money isn't all there is to life Thanks for sharing an inspiring video

[@aidanred6270]

Underrated channel, keep up the amazing videos!

[@PraemIo]

+Aidan red thanks Aidan!

[@JoostHermes]

Great short film, I do miss my old black outlaw sometimes. Glad that Bart did the first shoot with it so it is captured for eternity.

[@jamesdunn9714]

Bart has a vision and stays true to that vision.

[@6x6Tortuga]

[@rg0115]

Great film and such a great idea.

[@kt78667]

Very Petrolicious yet has a distinct feel thats separates it from that channel. Awesome job! There have been some great videos produced here.

[@PraemIo]

Great to hear! :) - J

[@TheWallBeyond]

Well, Valkyr used to do the Petrolicious films, but now they're doing Praemio, you can see the soul was in the film-making, and not the channel ;)

[@DarrenBarker121]

Great documentary. So many thoughts. I loved the process of shooting and developing film. Things move on, but I do miss the art of creating something. Moved into making short film/video

[@joybrusselers8135]

great story,wonderful fotos

[@DriversSide]

His series is a great idea! I might have to pick it up.

[@mikenorthern1024]

[@bartkuykens7697]

Great job Lau....happy with the result

[@joejoe188]

Great video diary! I feel his passion, I want to own n drive all Porsches, I own 3 and maintaining all is a pleasure but the thing is I keep eyeballing other Porsches. Maybe I will do like him and sell one, buy another style, love it, enjoy it, sell it then go to the next one, IDK! I'M an amateur, but have been getting into photography and Porsche cars, people, lifestyle, events have been the fuel. Love the people, the cars and families who own them. "Porsche Pashion" living it, loving it, is it in you?

[@BillyMangino]

What's the first song? I love this channel btw!!!

[@caet49]

Made it......stupid ide......now I have 26 porsche ......this is awsome😉 the Best !

[@lowlygentleman1466]

Hope to see you @ Triangle of Madness this Year. Gretts from the "BOSS" ;-)

[@andresagustinrebellacouto9810]

This kind of videos make me think about "the afraid of going for something that you KNOW its passion of life"(including me personally)... In my case i know i love mecanics, i am a student of it....but... i always try to find a reason to say "its just a hobby..." But thx this kind of videos, im changing the way i look myself and how i would love to be in the next years... things could be so differen,t if we just think from the beggining "it will be fine!"

[@PraemIo]

Best of luck Andres and it’s all about that risk and reward!

[@andresagustinrebellacouto9810]

You just say it! RISK AND REWARDS WILL BE WAITING FOR YOU! Fan Nº1 from the moment i discover you Praemio!

[@overbuiltlimited]

6:26 Love that Panerai clock face! Wonder where he got it?

[@danielmorrism]

such an inspirational channel

[@PraemIo]

+Daniel Morris thanks Daniel!

[@bartkuykens7697]

stay tuned! More awesomeness to come

[@tomvannispen]

Lovely video i realy like that You came to rotterdam and did not take the "Erasmus brug" and did take the van nelle fabriek and the Brienenoordbrug. The Brienenoordbrug is the bridge where people from rotterdam say we re home while watching the skyline

[@bartkuykens7697]

that was the plan..:-)

[@TheFDMotorsports]

👍👍👍

[@bernardmauge8613]

interesting to know if his car is a backdate and what size engine?

[@zguy95135]

Has Porches and shoots film? Awesome.

[@bartkuykens7697]

what else? :-)

[@samversaceyyyyyy]

great video but you should make more skating videos your editing is insane!

[@popseworld28]

I love the Porsche as a whole but the average person can't afford one but I will buy a few one day soon.

[@o.fuchs911]

Wow panerai dial on the clock?! How did you do that?

[@YouTwinkable]

I was wondering if anybody else noticed that! Did you find out?

[@agwithey]

it looks like a coaster to me, you know the ones you sit a drink on? I have the exact same Panerai coaster

[@TinoBermudez]

WOW ¿What is this music greatness at 1:20?

[@kmtkaos123]

Hey Fernando, I found the song. If you go on google and go to dewolfmusic website, on the main page you'll find "production music" tab in the top left. Then look at the latest albums and you'll find one named "BLOCKHEAD: THE ART OF THE SAMPLE", BITE 001. The song is called "Coastline Cruising".

[@guitarmatt94]

anyone know of channels like this but more based on life experiences and not 'things'? no offense to the channel, its very well done

[@PraemIo]

+Strutting_strat try Great Big Story!

[@6x6Tortuga]

Onlt problem with the name is that you limit yourself to a flat 6s. Lots of Porsche flat 4s inclusing your 914...

[@TheStevemcqueen68]

Get rid of the music , I want to hear you and hear the car
