    About Me

    If there is anything that is difficult for me, it is talking about myself. Many years ago, I found out that photography can be a means of expression that it better suited to me than words.

    I have been doing photography as early as I can remember. My father was taking pictures at home and it was only for a school trip to Hungary that he allowed me to take the camera. For a long time, my photos were mostly related to my travels. Besides, I like traveling so much that I studied tourism. I now have a degree in tourism that has no other purpose than to make me a professional tourist!

    In 2004, I had the crazy idea to go live in London where I actually had never set foot before and I instantly loved it. But after 7 years there, I moved back to France where I stayed 7 years again before it was time for another change. This time I spent 2 years in Lisbon and I am now back again near Montpellier, Southern France.

    Poetry and moments

    For a long time I wanted to be a writer or a poet. To tell stories for me was like dreaming. The only problem was that I was thinking in pictures. It was hard to put words on these images in my head. So I thought I’ll draw instead. But again, I could not share all the details. It’s not until I met my photography teacher that I understood that photography could be used to speak, to share moments, to tell stories.
