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 !

Desert Daze - Festival 2021

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 :

Christine & The Queens - La Vita Nuova UK EP Launch

In March, I was commissionned to document the UK Launch of Christine & The Queens New EP “La Vita Nuova”. A very intimate gig at Moth Club in London and a pleasure to work with Chris again. The last show that I have covered before Lockdown.

War Horse - National Theatre

In December, I was commissionned to go to Paris and photograph the production stills and bacstage images for the acclaimed National Theatre play War Horse. A production like no other with flawless performances from its actors and lifesize puppet Horses !
