About and Contact

I’m photographer living in Paris. I have a creative artistic practice, making my own work and I also work for clients on assignment.  Most of what I make is in response to the small and simple things I encounter in everyday life, the people I meet, stories I hear, beauty in the everyday and the natural world.

I sometimes write as part of my process, often to accompany my photographs. You can read examples of published articles via links below.
