After learning photography in Toulon, then in a photography school in Paris, I managed to achieve my dream: travel to Hawaii.
At the age of 19, I landed on the island of Maui to start shooting all kind of water sports. Quickly, the first publication came after spendings days and days in the water with my custom homemade water housing.
During the next couple of years, I traveled the world alongside professionals in search of photogenic landscapes and waves that had never been surfed before.
At 22, with my friend, professional windsurfer, Baptiste Gossein, we decided to move to Tahiti, a place we both fell in love with. I made Teahupoo my backyard and my favorite place to shoot. Mesmerized by the many colors of my new home, I explored new ways of shooting by flying aboard my motorized paraglider.
My curiosity and thirst for discovery takes me constantly around the world to meet new cultures and discover new places.
