About me

I started photography in 2009 during my honeymoon when I had then bought my first digital reflex camera. I enjoyed so much taking pictures that I started studying the technical aspects by myself, simply by training myself taking pictures and reading books. I then followed an artistic photography workshop at Les Ateliers de la rue Voot. That workshop tought me how to read and how to create pictures providing the message I'd like them to convey.

Before that time, I didn't have any artistic occupation. I studied IT Engineering, and had been working for banking IT for 10 years. I then realised that I was missing creativity in my dailly work, and creativity is the engine of my well-being. I decided it was time to sort the priorities in my life, and as a result I invested myself into photography. Since then I'm still working in banking IT, but only half-time. The other half-time is devoted to taking pictures.

In addition to this, I also launched my small web design studio Moccha Creative Studio.
