Please, introduce yourself?

I am an architectural photographer from France, currently living in Paris.

How did you find your way into the field of architecture and photography?

I actually studied in Architecture school – ENSA Paris-Val de Seine – right after college and currently work in this field as well. Quite into photography since adolescence, but more for nature and landscapes at this time, I started taking architectural pics during my studies. I remember this travel to Copenhagen, while discovering so many great spaces to shoot. Then I started to take more pictures – about two years ago – and found a kind of way of expressing.

What is the essence of architecture for you personally?

Light. Because it contributes to build a space, while creating a symbiosis between its environment, its function and its structural aesthetic.

 
«Islas Canarias»
2018
«Islas Canarias» is a story about meditative atmosphere and solar energy. Within the archipelago, Tenerife is a gentle balance between vegetation and contemporary architecture. Highlighted by warm tones and soft light, rough concrete is modeling some organic and sharp shapes, keeping a consistency with natural environment. In the meantime, the harmony of light contributes to calmness.
