Who/what am I?
I'm a freelance photographer and film maker
Fully self-tought, which is up to you to consider positive or negative, but most certainly means my work is different - due to utter lack of academical influences. Yet I’ve benefited from the contact with many professionals (forever grateful guys). Anyway, no need to ramble, browse to the albums. And oh! Yes err... in a former life I used to be Engineer in Softwares and Websites Development.
I'm French (breath normally, emergency exits are on the side)
My lover Delphine and I have cycled around the world on a tandem bike for 2.5 years (and yet did not get divorced, well ahem we didn't get married in the first place that's right). We now roam festivals here and there to screen our adventure films. We're just at the beginning of yet another nice adventure, this time with our films; we started screening them in 2010 on French TV and they've been broadcast there ever since and have fetched a few awards already at a couple festivals which is always comforting and gives a lot of motivation to keep going, especially for the total freelancers we are.
And we indeed keep going: after that 2.5 years trip through South America, the Pacific (mainly NZ), Asia and Europe, we've had a daughter who has now joined us on our trips. She was 9 month old when we set out on a journey to, around, and across Iceland (on our tandem bike as always). Just after the now famous eruption of Eyjafallajökull which name no one here dares pronouncing. We did celebrate her first birthday there (it was snowing, she did survive) and of course, this also has become a film...

I speak about 4 languages - French, English, Spanish and German.
What’s wrong with me then?
Nicely stubborn, charmingly nervous, lovely weird sense of humour.
My personal interests?
Too many to be all listed here, but in relevance with the main objective of this page: I like to show the (unexpected) extent of the beauty that this reality we're living in has to offer, this very beauty we tend not to be aware of, sadly enough, most of the time.
I hope my modest art work brings forward a message, each time different, and spreads emotions, stronger each time.

Alright you also want the irrelevant stuff?
Well just a brief and far from complete (need to keep you hungry) overview then: electro post rock music, contemporary litterature, cuisine-cuisine-cuisine, sports - mountainbiking, mountainrunning, mountainskiing, mountainclimbing (well you get the picture: it has a mountain on it).
