ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Michael and I'm excited to share with you my passion for Landscape / Wildlife / Sport Photography. Through my pictures, I try to show you the beauty of our planet while remaining faithful to the reality in post-production. Actually, every location that I explore, near or far, will make me discover a new wonder that I want to immortalize for you!
I'm a 30 years old swiss guy living around Lausanne close to the Leman lake. This lake is a wonderful place in Switzerland and has already inspired many artists. I work as a teacher part time where I enjoy transmitting my knowledge to younger generations. This work is therefore giving me time for photography.
My main goal in photography is to show you the loveliness and the richness of our planet, so that you want to develop a closer connection to the nature. In this context of global warming and the overexploitation of the resources available, a part of my work tends to create a feeling to protect our nature and the diversity of the species living in it by cherishing our planet. By sharing my pictures with you, I also hope to inspire you, to give you a taste to discover our world or to go for an adventure!
PASSIONS
Being always attracted to discover the world, I jumped at the opportunity to go to Australia in order to improve my English in a school. By traveling in this spectacular country, I walked hours to explore every corner and to take pictures with an old compact digital camera. Every day was a meeting with a new landscape, a new wildlife or an unbelievable detail. That's how my passion for photography all started!
This year in Australia was also the trigger for a second passion; living close to the ocean, a friend suggested me to try surfing. From the first session, I was feeling so good only just being in the water. Moreover, it's an even better feeling to be one with a wave, a powerful and unpredictable element of the nature.
The logo of this website represents therefore my 3 passions that can be combined together: photography, nature and surfing.
