Stills

I consider myself to be a documentary photographer. If you see my arms coming up from under the snow, I am under the snow. I treat the medium the same way a street shooter does. What happens in front of my camera happens in reality. There are no double exposures, no digital manipulations.

But I also look at the world through the mind. "What happens inside your mind can happen inside a camera."

My way out was to try to create a kind of filmstill in a paparazzi kind of way ( obviously with people's permission ) which gave me an incredible freedom for locations, actions … I wanted the photographs to have a colour feel but not to be full colour and therefore sometimes ' Brown tone ' or Black & White ; which gives the photographs a kind of faded look.
