Qu'est-ce que vous aimez dans votre métier ?

Photography as a profession is not dissimilar to espionage. You never know what is waiting for you on location, yet you should be prepared to become your client's best friend and problem solver, deliver on your promise, and then sometimes never see him again, or forge a long and fruitful business relationship. That requires people's skills, and ability to learn and think quickly, not to mention technical proficiency.

Quels types de séances avez-vous réalisés et comment les avez-vous rendus spéciaux ?

I have done a wide variety of shoots from a space shuttle launch to tennis tournaments to portraiture, and events big and small. The way to make a shoot special is to come up with a picture that people want to look at over and over again. Somehow, I manage to do it every time.

Un fait amusant sur ce photographe

I race sailboats and bicycles, play tennis, dance Argentine tango, and love arthouse cinema. I've traveled to some 20 countries, and it was photography that made it possible.
