Wedding Photography
The Photographer
I’ve been a digital photographer since 2001, and became a very enthusiastic professional in 2011. I have since then offered countless photo shoots in various areas, including big-scale corporate events, international culture festivals, luxurious weddings, but also more intimate family portraits. Alongside these works, I have always maintained a joyful personal practice through artistic and nature photography.
In recent years, I have had the honnor of capturing the vows of international couples in magnificent venues in France, as well as more exotic destinations such as Morroco and Costa Rica. I am now following the path that was initiated by my parents by going international and now moving to a gem of a destination : French Polynesia.
The Man Behind The Lense :
I was born a traveler. Snuggling in my mother’s womb as she sailed for freedom across the south China Sea, I opened my eyes to this life on a filipino paradise island – our ship landed in El Nido, Palawan – to end up flying to Europe as a toddler and spend most of my childhood in an unexpectedly dull village in the southeast of France.
Meeting the love of my life as she returned from a few years long stay in Japan set a new start for a decade of exploring the world, whenever my status as a stateless citizen allowed. For years, this very uncommon status that I inherited from being the son of Vietnamese boat people born in a third country gave me the sense of being free from any attachment, yet limiting my ability to travel freely. It was only in 2021, having become a father and a 37 years long resident of France, that I obtained my French citizenship. This opened the way for an adventure of living and shooting abroad.
