In 2019, I co-founded the creative studio Maison Papakunu with Justine Robineau. My work focuses on creating authentic and poetic visual stories to highlight artists, craftsmen, and brands that capture my interest and align with my values. Inspiration stems from the gestures and profound philosophies of my subjects, as well as the rich and diverse environments that surround them. Through photography and video, I capture the essence of my subjects—the journey, the dream, and the encounter—thus creating images that tell unique and emotional stories. Welcome to my world, where photography and video become powerful means of bringing these moments to life and sharing these inspiring stories with the world.
