Who Am I ? :
Pierre, 35 y.o., based in Marlioz, small village between Annecy and Geneva, at the heart of the alps between France & Switzerland.
Passionate by freeskiing and more generally the extreme sports, I started photographing my friends off piste or at the snowpark 10 years ago when I left my native Provence to Savoy : I wanted to keep memories of my exciting adventures in the mountains. I quickly became addicted to sports reporting and "ride culture," so I started to follow professional riders on each element : snow , water, air , mud or the streets. For 7 years, I work mainly for the press, ski resorts, sports manufacturers & outdoor or alternative sports brands.
In parallel to my activity within the outdoor sports industry, I started photographing major corporate events trained and in association with a large Riviera photo agency then now by myself, with reliability and discretion since 6 years.
Regularly working with european/american/international clients, I communicate easily in english (with a sexy accent ... excuse my french !), and I'm always keen to jump in a plane in order to discover new place and new cultures all over the world.
What can I do for you? :
- Corporate events (Incentives, Seminars, Conferences, galas ... ).
- Communication / Institutionnal & commercial assignements
- Action sports & lifestyle
- Press coverage
- Wedding photographer
