BASED IN MEXICO ( and travelling worldwide )

COMMERCIAL SURF PHOTOGRAPHER AND VIDEOGRAPHER
BRINGING YOUR BRAND'S VISION TO LIFE

My inspiration as a surf photographer and videographer comes from capturing surfers and their connection with the ocean. This connection can be particularly strong in tropical places where the ocean plays a central role in daily life and local culture. Through my photography, I especially want to empower women and capture their special connection with nature, in and around the water. I believe in creating beautiful and empowering imagery that tells a story and generates emotion, in order to grab anyone’s attention.

Creating DREAMY AND POWERFUL imagery rooted in the tropics that will tell a story, GRAB ANYONE’S AtTEntion and BRING YOUR BRAND’S VISION TO LIFE

I am a female surf photographer and videographer from France but I am now based in Mexico. Absolutely in love with the ocean, surfing and the beach in general, I spend most of my time outside, chasing waves and sunshine. I actually graduated as an engineer and got a master in marine biology two years ago as I have always wanted to work close to the ocean. Despite my love for marine biology, I decided to chase my dream of being a surf photographer after I graduated. Today, I focus mostly on commercial surf photography and videography. My favourite part of the job is bringing a brand’s vision to life and creating imagery that tells a story and grabs everyone’s attention.
