I’m an award-winning portrait, advertising and event photographer, based in Paris and New York. When I’m not documenting the ritual and tradition of Carnival, I work with businesses, organizations and individuals to create strategic images for their identity and communications campaigns. No matter the client or place, I often photograph the “Why” not just the “What.” More on that here.
I also offer limited edition prints to collectors from my series. I’m looking forward to working with you!

Featured Project: We the Spirits photography book

For over 15 years, I have visually documented the ritual and festival of Carnival, focusing on traditional, folkloric, and community celebrations, with few outside visitors. The result is We the Spirits, portraits of traditional Carnival masquerades from 15 countries.
