Giving a voice to those who fight

I photograph the memory of struggles, and help committed changemakers find their voice. I focus on memory and resilience in contexts of crisis or social fracture.

Alongside this work, I founded Dyscern ten years ago to bring that same narrative rigour to solidarity-driven and cultural organisations. Today, I put my documentary eye to work for your content, turning information into experiences that leave a lasting mark. In a world saturated with messages, what endures is what has meaning.

Studio Dyscern

The same eye, for committed organisations

In 2014, I founded Dyscern to put emotion and storytelling at the heart of digital projects. The studio works with NGOs, institutions and cultural players: Amnesty International, AIDES, Action Against Hunger, Samusocial de Paris, the Cannes Film Festival…

Understanding a subject in depth before choosing how to tell it: the approach is the same, whether the story becomes a photograph or a website.

What my collaborators say

In 25 years of professional experience, one of the best collaborations to date! As a campaigner, I was lucky to have an exceptional partner: attentive, always solution-oriented, with real complementarity between our areas of expertise.

With Arnaud, we built innovative digital campaigns that allowed Amnesty France to test many new tools and mobilise online like never before.
