Photography is a passion! The desire to freeze the beauty surrounding me to keep a record of it… Testify about environment by showing it under its most beautiful scenes and lights, in order to open your eyes and challenge the importance of preserving it! Since 2016, I’ve been photographing nature around me, I’m living in a lovely port in North Finistère, opportunities to be amazed are not lacking! I prefer wildlife photography, with as little as possible of human footprints! I now focus on a more artistic and creative quality in my images, in a refined style… I need to live and then share these moments of serenity felt in the middle of nature during my outings long before sunrise, where only birds are heard among the movements of the sea, or on the contrary late at night, when I find myself alone in the face of this immensity… I like living by the sea, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying totally other territories! In 2019, then 2020, I realized a travel and photographic project: Meet and observe wild animals in their snowy environment! I left alone twice in the middle of winter in the oldest national park in the United States, the Yellowstone National Park (NP)!

Exposition

 

From my two winter trips to Yellowstone National park, a series of exhibitions was born:

“White Yellowstone” : It was exhibited several times, the reaction and the emotion of the public in front of these images were moving! But through these meetings, one thing strucked me: in Europe we do not know this North American animal species: the Coyote! I had the joy of sharing a few moments of their life, sometimes I witnessed surprising, touching scenes… I really liked this wild species that I want you to discover, I hope you will be charmed too!
