Paris
Emmanuel was born in 1977 in Saumur (loire valley) and grew up in Rochefort Sur Mer in Charente Maritime. Torn between his two passions, music and photography, he decided on the second as a career.
In 1997, he served during his military time in Paris at the etablissement cinematographique et photographique des armees. This job led him to work closely with the French government. For four years, he then continued to follow the prime minister at the time, Lionel Jospin on all his national and international trips as its official photographer, confronting himself with a wide range of situations and subjects. Once Jospin’s mandate ended, Emmanuel left the administration and joined the Impress agency in 2001 covering societal and political stories.
Rich from these experiences, he decided to go freelance in 2004 and has been multiplying collaborations with various wire agencies ( Reuters, Gamma, Strates) publications, and corporations worldwide since then. Along with long-term personal projects about Tchernobyl and immigration issues in France, he covers various stories about politics, sports, lifestyle, and fashion always in a very personal style and numerous corporate and editorial portraits.
