Who's behind the lens?

I picked up a camera in 2011, looking for a language that could reach where words stop. A sudden detail — the way it is caressed by the light…

So many events and choices in my life have shaped my photographic style: artists I admire, people I've crossed paths with, Eastern cinema (Wong Kar-Wai, Takeshi Kitano) and, above all, my training as a Japanologist, which let me immerse myself fully in Japanese culture.

My favourite genre is street photography: spontaneous, authentic. I like my subjects to be an integral part of the environment and the atmosphere, helping to create the emotion. Beauty is everywhere and in everyone — I'm convinced that each person is a microcosm. And that is what I try to capture in my photographs, before it dissolves into the flow of the city.

Many of the shots you see here are available as prints, to bring a piece of this story into your own spaces. And if you'd like an authentic photographic story, far from artificial poses, I'm ready to capture yours. Let's talk about it.
