Born to paddle

For seven years, I photographed the exhilarating world of river sports in the French Alps. From the dynamic currents of the Ubaye in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence to the thrilling rapids of the Dranse in Haute-Savoie, my lens has witnessed it all.

With over fifty thousand images taken, these experiences have left an indelible mark on my work and my life. For me, it has been the school of entrepreneurship. Here's a brief glimpse of the vibrant atmosphere of our Alpine rivers.
