​The Love of Travelling, the Passion for Photography


Photo

​At the age of 18, offered me to go around the world with them. It was 1970. The intensity of this experience would awaken in me a great, an insatiable curiosity for the human adventure on earth. I am deeply grateful to them. The taste for observing, documenting and understanding cultural differences born during this trip, still lives within and inspires me.
It was also during this journey that I made my first guns in photography, with my first real camera: a Canon FT 35mm with a 50mm lens that I bought in Hong Kong. With this camera and Kodachrome slide film ISO 25 and 64 in hand, I undertook the greatest and longest journey of my life. Photography.

When LOOKING transforms into SEEING, the whole universe is transformed. lt

​Abroad,
everything fascinates me. The differences in flora and fauna, clothing, architecture and kitchen tools. I lovesnooping around hardware stores to see what makes up people's lives. The different lifestyles fascinate me, often in their most minute details. The planetary phenomenon of leveling down makes me deeply sad. Everything looks more and more the same everywhere on the planet, especially in cities.

​Souvenirs



Form Morocco to Greenland,
from Namibia to Hawaii, from Italy to Japan, I have contemplated the world through the viewfinder of my camera. Photography has always been my recollection tool. Photography has always been my documentary tool, my souvenir wizard. By "taking" pictures during my travels, I feel like I'm taking something from the countries I visit. I bring these treasures home, where I store them in my large treasure chest. The day I can no longer travel around the globe, I will open this big trunk and re-live my adventures. The more beautiful the images, the better the virtual trips will be.

It is certain that we want to bring back from our travels the most beautiful images, but it is also important to think about bringing photos taken with the sole purpose of reminding us of places, events or even items that surprised us, have aroused our curiosity, have made us laugh or cry. The emotions felt when shooting will resurface later when we go through our images.

This picture of a woman met in a small village on the Kasbahs Trail in Morocco reminds me of the beautiful encounter we had with her during our visit to her home. The light was perfect, her sweet smile sincere and inviting.
