FRANCE photobook

In the summer of 2025, I spent three weeks wandering through the soul of France—from the poetic symmetry of Parisian boulevards to the salt-kissed walls of Saint-Malo, and into the gentle greens and quiet charm of Vernon-Giverny in Normandy. Each stop on this journey felt like a page out of a film script, unfolding in real-time, yet touched by the timelessness of memory.

This book is a visual diary—a quiet celebration of places that invite pause, light that breathes emotion, and colours that echo the past. My photographic approach draws from the language of analogue film: rich, textured, and contemplative. The images presented are not about capturing perfection, but rather about evoking a feeling—of warmth, intimacy, and cinematic stillness.

France, with its layered history and everyday elegance, lent itself effortlessly to this vision. Whether in the golden hush of a Parisian afternoon, the misty romance of a boat moored beneath turning leaves, or the playful quiet of a picnic in the Marais, each frame tells a small story—unrushed, unfiltered, and deeply personal.

This is not just a collection of photographs. It’s an invitation to slow down, to see not just the grand landmarks, but also the spaces in between. The quiet corners. The morning light. The fleeting glances. The unscripted moments that, when gathered together, become a season of travel—on film, and in memory.
