It has been a very long time since the last time I posted anything. A while since I posted on my gallery and even longer in my journal. But the inspiration is here. I do have several photos to share with you, snapshots of my life over the past few years. And the desire to create is very vibrant in me right now. Inspiration always comes in waves, and you have to catch it when it comes. It is difficult because I am no longer in Paris, I don't have my network of models anymore, nor am I familiar with good shooting spots. I moved to America.

Hi everyone, I know I have been very quiet lately... I did not lose interest in photography, I am just extremely busy with work and studies. Also my camera got stolen this summer... worse story ever ! It made me reconsider photography and how I practise it.

This new project inspired by Terrence Malick's movies, all those new acquaintances, I in a very exciting period ! I have probably never been so motivated by photography then now... Hope it sticks ! =)=)
