A couple dressed in wedding attire is seated and standing around a long, decorated table outdoors, with the bride dancing on the table, all under a large, curved metal arch with candles and floral arrangements.

As a French photographer and photographic author, I'm drawn to what moves. To what escapes the frame. To the quiet moments where something real happens.

My work lives between documentary and editorial photography — rooted in Brittany, reaching across France, the UK and Europe.

I don't stage moments, I let them unfold. Movement, presence, light and shadow shape every story. What matters is not perfection, but truth. From intimate weddings to artistic portraits, each story is approached with instinct and intention.
