about.

Photographer, camera operator and drone & FPV pilot, based between Ariège and Paris.
Independent since 2018, I photograph and film effort: trail, ultra and outdoor, from Pyrenean paths to the Sahara, all the way to major events such as the FIFA Club World Cup and the Paris 2024 Games. I bring the same standards to brands, hotels, restaurants and businesses.
I practise what I film: trail running, bivouacs, highlining. That is what lets me be in the right place at the right time, without getting in the way of the race.
