Lifestyle editorial photographer

Editorial work begins with an idea — not just an aesthetic.

​

I create concept-driven photography that blends realism with atmosphere, developed for magazines, independent publications, boutique hospitality features and visual brand narratives. Each project is shaped by intention: mood, character, architecture and the subtle tension between subject and setting.

​

My approach favors natural environments, architectural presence and authentic light. I work quietly and intuitively, building visual rhythm rather than staging spectacle. The goal is not excess — but depth.

​

From lifestyle features and portrait essays to travel stories, heritage spaces and cultural reportage, I aim to create imagery that feels lived, thoughtful and visually cohesive.

For editors and creative directors, reliability matters as much as vision. I deliver work aligned with editorial standards, adaptable to print and digital formats, and responsive to production realities.

​

At its core, editorial photography is about narrative clarity. I approach each project with sensitivity, structure and a distinct visual signature rooted in Paris — but open to travel and collaboration beyond it.

Editorial Collaboration Concept

Castello di Tassara was approached as a fully immersive visual narrative — blending culinary storytelling, architectural identity and seasonal atmosphere.

​

The series was developed to illustrate how heritage properties can communicate identity through cohesive imagery: from artisanal food preparation to intimate interior details and expansive landscape frames.

​

This approach is particularly suited for:
– Boutique hotels
– Heritage estates
– Lifestyle publications
– Slow-living and culinary brands

​

The visual direction emphasises authenticity, sensory richness and European cultural depth — creating imagery that resonates beyond documentation and into brand experience.

Paris is my base — but projects often travel beyond.
