I'm a French-born photographer based in Auckland, New Zealand, where I've lived and worked for nearly three decades.

Photography has been a central part of my life for many years. What began as a way of observing and understanding the world has developed into a career spanning architecture, interiors, portraiture and fine art.

My approach is built around curiosity, observation and human connection. Whether I'm photographing a building, a person or exploring a personal project, I take time to understand what is in front of me. Light, composition and technical precision are essential, but so is the ability to recognise the character, atmosphere and individuality of my subject.

Alongside my commissioned photography, I continue to explore personal projects that reflect my interest in people, places and the stories they carry. More recently, writing has become another way of expressing these observations, bringing words and images together as different ways of exploring the same ideas.

My work has been exhibited since 2008, recognised through numerous national and international awards, and collected in New Zealand and beyond.

Photography remains at the heart of what I do, but what continues to inspire me is the opportunity to observe, question, discover and share something meaningful through my work.
