Photography – New Orleans

Bonjour! I\'m a French native from Paris who\'s spent the last five years in Africa and America. I just settled in New Orleans in 2014. I am a translator, a photographer and a tutor. I also published a few books and used to write screenplays for different TV series in France. One of my specialities as a photographer is to do photo overlays on film. I limit my digital editing as I want to keep the imperfections as a poetical trace. To succeed in this kind of photography, it\'s important to have a little technical knowledge, a good visual memory plus a lot of imagination to make two or three different topics work together. Luck also plays a big role. I want to show an unrealistic and poetic moment of life rather than an instant of reality. So if you are curious and take a look, I hope you\'ll create your own interpretation. If so, I\'m a happy artist!
