“I am a professional photographer originally from the Parisian suburbs. I am particularly drawn to everyday life, to things we no longer pay attention to. I find great inspiration in vernacular photography, which aims to be useful and serves a purpose, such as capturing memories. I use photography as a way to preserve memories that fade with time; it's a way for me to keep a record of my daily experiences. I shoot on 35mm film because it allows me to always have compact cameras with me. Film gives more weight to what I photograph, thus adding sentimental value to my images.”
