A French photographer trained at Ecole Nationale Louis Lumière from Paris (1983) with over twenty years’ experience of reportage all over the world. His work has often won awards and been published in numerous magazines. Close connection and a dialogue, as intimate as possible, with his subjects is the core of his approach.
« I try to use light and my « photographic machine’s » to tell the story of moments in the life of humanity ».
With this maturity behind him, his expressive research, always preceded by in-depth study and reflection, now extends to personal or commissioned projects that he chooses first and foremost for their great human values. His photographic expression combines old analogic techniques such as the large format camera and digital photography. These creative projects also give him the opportunity to be involved from conception to completion.
His artistic photographic work is now promoted by the Lab 1930 Fotografia contemporanea in Milan and the Millenium gallery in London.
