Travel Photographer Journal
Thoughts, ideas and updates from the road.
My name is Vincent and I am a travel photographer. I was born in France and have been captivated by Australia since an early age. I spent a few (too many) years in London before making the big trip around Australia. Driven by the amazing and rugged landscape, I developed a strong passion for photography.
I studied a Diploma of Photo Imaging with CATC Design school in Melbourne. My style is fresh and vibrant. Through a documentary approach, my photography captures the essence of being and the world around us, the people we meet and the informal moments in our lives.
Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs. ~ Susan Sontag
