After an initial professional career, I discovered photography in the midst of demanding international environments and through extensive travel around the world. What began as a way to capture the moment gradually became a true vocation.
In 2015, I chose to devote myself fully to this profession. I trained in photojournalism with ECPAD (the French Defense Audiovisual Communication and Production Agency), and then at the School of Information Professions (EMI-CFD) in Paris.
Today, my work is rooted in a reportage approach, attentive to contemporary realities. I cover subjects related to current events, politics, issues of security and defense, religion, as well as social dynamics. Through my images, I aim to offer a humanist, sincere, and accessible perspective—without posture or judgment, simply as a witness. My intention is straightforward: to show, understand, and convey, bringing the viewer as close as possible to realities they cannot always access.
Based in Saumur, in the Maine-et-Loire region of France, I am available for assignments both nationally and internationally, including in sensitive environments or areas of tension.
