Even if it is very challenging to use it, backlighting has always been one of my favorite photography technics. It is a great way to make a sometimes simple subject interesting and mysterious because only its silhouette is going to appear on the photograph. While walking around Paris with Alex, we saw these large number […]

Here is a photograph from my night shots collection. I like it a lot because it has a totally boring subject: a lamp post… but the fact that it was taken at night with a long exposure makes it totally cool. Imagine the same shot during the day: We would have a lonely lamp post […]

The photograph I wanted to post today has nothing very special technically or in its composition but it is just a picture that made me smile when I looked at it because it captured a special moment and involves 2 of my favorite people. I took this photograph of my little niece, Emma, right after […]

I took this photograph during my recent trip to Paris. It was a very short trip and I didn’t get a chance to hang out much but I am glad I took my camera with me when I went wandering around with Flo, my sister in law. We had just finished a delicious and fun […]

Nothing crazy or artistic about this photo… just wanted to post a photograph of my best friend Eugenie today because we met in the plane on October 14, 1999 when we both moved to San Francisco… I took this shot during a week-end we spent in Marseille together last year… it was a great week-end! […]

Today, it is my brother’s Stephane’s birthday so I wanted to publish a little photo of him. I took this photograph for Christmas last year. His little baby girl, Emma, had been sick for a few days and she just wanted to cuttle with her daddy. I think they are very cute together. Stephane & […]

Coming back from an awesome week-end of climbing in Yosemite… I am quite exhausted and didn’t take many pictures this week-end as I was more focused on my safety and the safety of my partner on the multi-pitch climbs than on photography… it is unfortunate because I could have taken amazing shots but my hands […]

Today, I went to a barbeque down south of San Francisco. We had a great time with great people, great food and a bunch of kids running around… so it reminded me of my little niece, Emma. Emma is 2 years old and I simply thinks she is one of the most adorable kids I […]

I have always liked weddings… Not really because of the ceremony and the stuff around it but because I think it is a great opportunity to have a big party and see old friends and family that you have not had a chance to talk to in ages. In the recent years, I have started […]
