Photography has been a profound journey for me since my youth. My early experiences in photography, influenced by my upbringing in the culturally diverse suburbs of Paris and the impactful stories shared by my family that escaped the Cambodian genocide, have shaped a vision rooted in capturing the resilience, beauty, and essence of humanity. Through my lens, I aim to tell stories that inspire hope, foster understanding, and promote diversity.
Over the years, I have had the privilege of working on meaningful projects across the globe, documenting events and stories that highlight the courage and resilience of people striving for a more sustainable world. My work has been featured in various exhibitions and events, where I have shared these narratives with audiences who seek to connect with the deeper aspects of life through the art of photography.
In addition to my documentary and artistic photography, I offer a range of professional photography services for various types of projects. From capturing the elegance of corporate events and the energy of cultural gatherings to crafting unique portraits, culinary photography, and corporate imagery for businesses, I bring the same dedication and artistic vision to each assignment. My approach is to seamlessly integrate into each environment, capturing the essence and authenticity of each subject or moment. I understand the significance of these occasions and work meticulously to deliver images that not only document the moment but also tell a story that resonates and is remembered.
Based in Switzerland, I am available for assignments throughout the region and beyond, ready to bring each project to life through my lens.
