My story

Every Bora Bora photographer has their own particular style of photography.

10 years ago, I discovered that what I loved most of all, was making people look beautiful in photographs.
À long time ago, when I discovered my best friend's wedding photos, I realised how much a beautiful photo of us, with those we love, was the most precious gift we could receive. An eternal gift.

After 10 years of photography and travelling, I stopped off in Bora Bora during my round-the-world trip, where I decided to settle down and combine my two passions in photography : Capturing the most beautiful landscapes in the world, with a special camera that offers unrivalled quality and colour.
But above all, to show people how beautiful they can be in a photo. Your eternal gift, in paradise.

how i transforme photo at Bora Bora as master piece

"Do not edit the photos, it would be like going to a Michelin-starred restaurant to be served raw ingredients, without even having them cooked. There's a missing step!"

After taking the photos, the most important part to enhance the final result begins. I personally edit all the photos, one by one! It takes about 3 hours to edit 50 photos, sometimes more for low-light photos. This is why it takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks to deliver the photos in 4K. I use Lightroom software to recover shadows, control highlights, and give each image the most accurate colors to reality. Thanks to Leica equipment, I can achieve unmatched image quality and realism in the world of photography.

My vision

When it's magical, there's always a trick

A lover of the LEICA brand since my beginnings, I use LEICA SL bodies that offer the legendary photo quality of LEICA along with the comfort and performance of the SL.


However, the body is primarily used to allow the full potential of the lenses to shine.
After all, 80% of a photo's result is achieved thanks to the lens used.

An exceptional camera, the Leica SL.

The SL body is undoubtedly the brand's most powerful camera, with exceptional capabilities for capturing the unique colors you'll see in Polynesia with utmost fidelity. It is also perfect for revealing shadows without compromising the quality of the skies. A marvel.

SL - SUPERVARIO 16-35 ASPH - 3.5/4.5

The ultimate lens for capturing landscapes and giving a sense of vastness to your memories. Its speed also makes it the perfect ally for capturing laughter during games (yes, I will have you play games) or freezing movements.

LEICA M - APO SUMICRON 50-ASPH - 2.0

The 50mm lens, part of the legendary "LEICA M" family, has been deemed "perfect" by LEICA engineers. Zero flaws, zero distortion, and the most perfect rendering of textures and details at all apertures. Perfect!

LEICA M - Noctilux 50 - 0.95

If I had to keep only one, it would be this one! A legendary aperture that allows capturing photos without flash and tripod, even at night. A depth of field so fine that each photo tells a precise story, drawing your eye to a specific point in the image. Its softness makes it perfect for portraits, gently smoothing out minor flaws and wrinkles. A legend in the world of photography.
