Lara Strauch

Hi! My name is Lara. I study Communication Science at the University of Amsterdam. I'm born and raised in Germany and left in order to experience a diversity of people and cultures. All my life, I've loved to take photos, which lead me to join the YOUvA-Team as a photographer. Besides my love for photography, I enjoy doing sports and I like exploring my new home turf, Amsterdam. One of my biggest passions is art. Visiting theatres, watching movies, reading a book, going to exhibitions and many more are a big part of my deal free time. In order to have a full-Dutch experience, I am trying to learn Dutch…let’s see how it will go. Doei, doei allemaal!

Hi, my name is Chiara! I'm a first year Communication Science student and a photographer for YOUvA Today. I was born in Germany, but lived in the United States for most of my life. I love taking photos as it captures the world in such a beautiful way. When I don't have a camera in my hand, I'm most likely travelling, reading or trying to find my way around Amsterdam (I am notoriously bad at navigation, ask any of my friends). I have an unhealthy obsession with playing Wordle every morning, and I own two dogs!

Hi there! My name is Lea, and I'm a photographer at YOUvA Today. I study Communication Science. Ever since I got my camera, I have developed a love for taking pictures of sports, nature, and people or things that inspire me. Besides my passion for photography, I enjoy socializing with friends, going to festivals, and walking my Australian shepherds. I also have an affinity for extreme sports such as horse-back riding and surfing. If you want to exchange ideas or photos, please feel free to reach out to me!
