Bio

I’m a documentary and editorial photographer based in USA and Africa, who creates warm, and quirky images of people and places, familiar and strange. I worked on a variety of projects thoughout the region of local and international media, NGOs, and private clients.

I feel very deeply attached to people’s lives, of their respective histories. Of life itself, which engraves and models their faces. It’s the evidence of their experience, which I have had the privilege and happiness to live every day. I think that each one of us has, at one moment in his life, faced these questions. It is another philosophy that leads to reflection, composition and ultimately accord with the world. And it is also the testimony of which I hope to transmit to you through these pictures.

I’m fluent in French, and I’m available for local and international assignments on a moment’s notice.

All work on this website is available as limited édition, archival prints.
