"I started photography by shooting portraits for actors. Then it led me to the fashion industry, doing books for "new faces" models, working with major agencies such as City-Models. My work is now more specific on the following themes: identity, mask, and disguise. I did this serie of superhero for the first Hype Gallery show in Paris Palais de Tokyo and then pursued this theme shooting a catalogue for a hat designer named Vanessa deutsch. I'm currently working on a serie of "environmental portraits" of immigrants in their daily activities, jobs. A sort of radiography of what is immigration today and what has become of the "western dream". At the same time I have some orders from merging rock bands and singers for their Cd covers."
