I discovered photography while working in Africa for humanitarian NGOs. In 2010, I decided to make it my profession and moved to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where I conducted documentary work on social issues and human rights. At the same time, I covered current events for Agence France-Presse.

Since 2012, based in Paris, I have been working as an independent photographer, exploring social and environmental issues, inequalities, and power dynamics, both in France and abroad, particularly in the DRC. My work, which has received numerous awards, is widely published in the French and international press.

My series on the social consequences of copper extraction in the DRC is part of the permanent collection of the Library of Congress in the United States since 2013, and my photographic investigation into the customs of the upper bourgeoisie led to the publication of a book in 2024, “Entre-soi, le séparatisme des riches”, co-authored with sociologist Monique Pinçon-Charlot.
