Perfect Stranger
National Geometric
C'est la nuit
Frozen
Self-taught photographer. Born in the south of France, I’ve lived and worked in Montreal since 2011. I wish I had a great story about inheriting my first camera from my grandfather or something like that, but no. I simply bought it in a store.
I’ve studied languages, worked as a lighting designer for shows, and spent several years being a creative ad guy. I now focus on my photography, based on observation and magnifying the simplest things.
I trust providence (not the religious definition though) and patience. My approach is based on wandering and accepting the impromptu.
I use photography to make simple factual observations and also to gather people, places, lines or lights in a setup that will exist only once.
