Until 1993, there was only conventional (film) photography. This was not only more difficult but also a lot more expensive (one had to pay for film and developing). Then, from about 1993 to 2008, digital sensors improved from terrible to decent. From 2008 onwards they became extremely good. I have experienced each of these phases.

Here I’m adding photos of me over the years so that you are able to identify me in the making-ofs.

The older the photo, the younger I look!

The sensors and web capabilities from 1995 to 2005 were horrible compared to now (2019). 40 KB max by images. My uploads at this time were therefore bad. I replace them little by little. It's long. Thank you for your indulgence.

Conclusion 1: I must not be bad, so that all these people trust me.
I have loyal customers, a sign that they are satisfied with my services. Examples: Tollens, MEDEF, Dior, GMF, Unesco, L'oréal, Anaé, Agefiph, Essilor, Genzyme, Embassy Ireland, The Advertisers Club, Garmin, VW, etc. ...

Conclusion 2: Thanks to all these varied clients (industry, wedding, corporate and personal portraits, press, events, objects, medical, culinary, diving, sports, pageants, etc. ..), I see extraordinary slices of life, confidential or public, trades and fabulous countries. I do feel very privileged. Real life, live. Thank you customers.

In rough estimation, I take 5,000 photos a week. 5,000 x 52 = 260,000 a year. For 35 years = 9,100,000 photos. Well, I would like to reach 10 million anyway!

There is also a search command, not always up to date, but pretty comprehensive on all my reportages:

Due to manipulations between prisedevue.com, prisedevue.photos and famousphotographer.com, some links may be broken. Sorry. I'm working on it !
