Everyone has a story to tell and I'm no different.

I tell my story through photography. I am a photographer based out of Paris. My passion for photography began at an early age. I was born in Rwanda. My father ran safari adventure tours that attracted people from around the world. I used to love helping him out.

Early Childhood

Even at a young age, I was intrigued by the people and where they came from. My father had a friend from Florida who would come on safari, and he gave me a camera once and showed me how it works. This is a photo of me at five years old holding that camera. It was a sign of things to come.

In 1994, our lives changed forever when my father was killed during the genocide in Rwanda. We had to flee the country, leaving everything behind. The only connection I have to my past and happier times in Rwanda is my mother’s few old photos. For me, photos are an equal link to people, a place and the memories of the moments captured.

My Travel Philosophy

As a passionate storyteller and adventurer, my journey was built around the connections that I made as I traveled around the world.

I built this platform to share my stories through photography and, most importantly, connect with like-minded storytellers and adventurers in a community of storytellers.

My goal is to inspire you to go and explore the world through its colors, cultures, and people.

What's Next

Capturing moments in time and people have been at the heart of what I do. For the last 5 years, I have been capturing and telling stories of people and places and events that I have been fortunate to attend. These experiences have led me to want to narrate and document your story.
