A warm welcome. I am a Street Photographer based in Dubai since January 2022. Over the last 30 years, I had the opportunity to travel and photograph many places from the streets in London, New York, Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Morocco to the Yali People tribes of West Papua, North Korea, the Faroe islands and recently Socotra Island in Yemen.
In the early days, I focused on landscape photography as I was captivated by the beauty of landscapes. In recent years, street photography has become my art as it enables me to capture the world around me candidly, without constraints.
For me, photography is a way to express my emotions and share my view of the world as a simple witness.
You can also buy my Books or any individual prints.
Do not hesitate to contact me, I will be happy to answer your questions.

Street Photography
Glad to see that my portfolio was selected for Format Spotlights.
I have been using Format for many years and it surely meets my needs. I would recommend it as it is well integrated into Lightroom if you use it to catalog and edit your photographs.
You can check it here or by clicking on the image to the right.

Canon Editor's choice - In July 2009, I was honoured that my photograph on the right was one of the 40 selected by Magdalena Herrera for Canon Professional Editor’s Choice among 4000+. Here is what she had to say on my photograph:
“This image is a funny one I would say and I really enjoyed looking at it It is like coming from a movie. This man with a hat in an empty town where there is no human beside him is very good. Everything, the direction, his way of walking and then the mountains and clouds beside. It is a very photogenic situation, it is like yeah a movie”.
