Introduction
Director of Photography, Senior Cameraman & Editor with 10+ years of international experience in audiovisual production, multicam, live events, documentary, sports and corporate. Available for permanent, fixed-term and freelance roles in Paris and all France. I am a cinematographer and documentary filmmaker based in Paris, with a background in science, journalism and the audiovisual arts. After working as a researcher and professor of physics, I joined Getty Images in New York as a photojournalist, initiating a new chapter in my career devoted to visual storytelling. My work spans international documentary productions, live broadcasting, television reportage, short films and news coverage for major networks, including coverage of global events like the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Experienced with Tricaster, VMix, OBS, Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve. I focus on stories of marginalisation and personal narratives that define our modern society. My cinematography blends realism and lyricism, capturing both the intimacy of human lives and the cinematic essence of their environments.
