Pointu - Festival & Exhibition 2023
The best place to catch updates would be my instagram page but I can not not post about Pointu Festival !
I have started working for this Festival in 2017 when I approached them after seeing the Line Up that contains most of my favorite bands. It takes place by the sea in South of France on an amazing location and it always hasa very curated line-up.
This year, I was asked to exhibit a selection of 50 images. Half of the images were displayed in a tent next to the main stage and the other half were part of an Art installation by the second stage. A stressful yet amazing opportunity for my first exhibition in France ! I will never thank them enough for giving me the chance to show my work. A very big thank you too to everyone who took the time to visit the installations and send me messages about it. It was amazing to see my images printed so big and to hear feedbacks about my work.
To add to that amazing experience, the Line Up was again fantastic with Idles, Kevin Morby, Viagra Boys, A Place to Bury Strangers, Mamalarky…
Check out on my Instagram to see some images of the exhibition and of the performances too !
Round Up - Year 2022
A quick note to apologize for the silence on the blog. Life got a bit crazy, and I let the updates slip through the cracks.
I realize that consistency is key, mostly for the algorithms that dictate my internet rankings. So, I'm diving into the blogging with a quick 2022 Round Up.
2022 was eventfull and fun and very busy straight out of the Covid break.
I went on Tour with Amy MacDonald, Calexico and Jeff Parker. I worked on Rupaul Drag Race and was part of the official photography Team for a few festivals including the super cool Primavera Sound, Aluna Festival in France, Food London, Pointu, Truck Festival, Celtic Connections, TRNSMT and Connect in Scotland, …
I also shot Christine & the Queens amazing performances at Southbank Center in London for his Press. What a show !
And I ended the year photographing a few dates of my favorite band The Cure European Tour.
All of those updates can be seen on my Instagram !

I was so happy to be back taking photos in the US after such a long time not beeing able to travel due to the Pandemic !
With Lake Perris in southern California as its backdrop, Desert Daze aims to be an intimate Festival with a sharp Line Up and an amazing atmosphere ! The 2021 edition was scaled down but still pretty exciting with The War on Drugs, Kamasi Washington, Deap Vally, Ty Segall, Kikagaku Moyo and many more bands on the bill. Definetely one on my list of favorite Festivals. A few pictures below :
