I see the world in
frames of light.
Based between Paris and Tokyo, I specialize in capturing moments that transcend the ordinary. My work has been featured in National Geographic, Vogue, and BBC Earth — but the images I am most proud of are the ones that make strangers feel something they cannot quite name.
With a background in fine arts from École des Beaux-Arts, I bring a deeply personal yet universally resonant perspective. Whether documenting street life in Shinjuku or creating haute couture editorials, I seek the same truth wrapped in beauty.
The Process
Concept & Strategy
We begin by understanding your vision, target audience, and the core message. We develop moodboards, lighting plans, and a comprehensive shoot strategy to ensure alignment.
Planning & Casting
Securing locations, assembling the creative team (stylists, MUA, set designers), casting talent, and finalizing the call sheet for a seamless shoot day.
The Shoot
Executing the vision with precision. Using state-of-the-art medium format cameras and lighting setups to capture high-fidelity imagery on set or on location.
Retouching & Delivery
Meticulous color grading, compositing, and high-end retouching to polish the final assets, delivered in all necessary formats for print and digital.
