BIOGRAPHY
Director of photography, photographer, aviator.
I tame light.I operate as a Director of photography, photographer and occasionally as an aviator.
I have two intertwined passions in life : light and flight.Flying is demanding. It requires discipline. I love both.It enables me to connect with our world from a different perspective.It feeds my experiences of light.I use both to inform my photography.As I travel around our world to serve my clients, I leverage my deep connection with light to capture the emotions that reflect the essence of their brand.
I am deeply passionate about my professional ambition :
Watch the shadows carefully and you'll see the light. Watch where it goes, its transmission, its length, its relationship with the surrounding elements.
Use it but respect it. Only then can you harness its power.
I am open and delightful to work with.If you want to find out more, contact me today.

BIOGRAPHIE
Directeur de la photographie, photographe, aviateur.
Depuis toujours deux passions guident mes rêves : l’aviation et la photographie. La première, cette discipline exigeante, que je poursuis jusqu’à obtenir une qualification en voltige aérienne, me permet d’intégrer physiquement mon rapport aux éléments naturels. De vivre cette relation si particulière avec la lumière.
Cette lumière naturelle dont je m’imprègne au cours de mes voyages à travers le monde pour les marques internationales qui me sollicitent comme directeur de la photographie. Cette lumière que je prend un soin infini à maîtriser pour retranscrire au mieux les émotions qu’elle suscite.
Une idée de mon métier que je résume ainsi : "Regarde les ombres tu verras la lumière, observe sa direction, son mode de transmission, sa distance, son interaction avec les éléments qui l’entourent. Utilise la sans jamais inverser son rôle, alors tu comprendras son pouvoir".
