From Brittany to Bora Bora

An island childhood

An island childhood

I was born in Brittany, France, and grew up by the sea. When I was young, I had the chance to move to Maupiti with my mother. During my teenage years, I lived between the islands and France, experiencing two different worlds rather than knowing just one. Moving between those places broadened my outlook and taught me to appreciate different ways of living — an experience that still shapes how I see people and places today.

Finding my own way

Finding my own way

I wasn’t especially good at school. The conventional system didn’t really suit the way I learned, but I was always curious about lots of different things. Then photography came into my life. What began as an interest became a passion, and eventually a profession. For around fifteen years now, it has been my full-time work — a job I feel lucky to genuinely enjoy.

Here’s the funny part: I love taking photographs, but I really don’t enjoy being in front of the camera myself. So if you arrive feeling a little awkward, wondering what to do with your hands or how to stand, I understand. That feeling helps me in my work. I’ll give you simple guidance, get you moving, and help you settle in. You don’t need to perform for me.

Lively sessions. Colorful memories.

A little movement. A lot of personality.

A little movement. A lot of personality.

I’m an easygoing, cheerful person, and I love a good laugh. My sessions reflect that: we walk, move, talk, and make room for whatever happens naturally. I’ll guide you when you need it, while leaving space for your own expressions and the way you are together.

True to the island

True to the island

My photographs are colorful because Bora Bora is colorful. I want the lagoon, the greenery, the light, and your skin tones to feel believable — faithful to the beauty you experienced here. Many clients tell me that this is what they appreciate: photographs that bring them back to the real place, rather than a different version of it.

I personally edit your photographs, including the cleanup of unwanted objects and visual distractions. I keep control of the finished look so the collection feels consistent, natural, and recognizably Bora Bora.

The people who keep me going

I’m married to a Polynesian woman — a vahine — and we have a daughter who carries both our cultures. They inspire me every day and give me the energy to keep learning, creating, and giving my best. Being a husband and father also makes the photographs of people together feel deeply personal to me.
