I offer rigorous, tailor-made support for photographers engaged in a clearly defined artistic practice, who wish to structure their positioning and develop their work within professional circuits of visibility and dissemination.

## Who Am I?
### My Background
For more than twenty-six years, I have been working at the heart of the French and international photography ecosystem. I have developed strategic expertise in the field through leadership, programming, and development roles within recognised institutions and organisations, including the Donation Jacques Henri Lartigue – French Ministry of Culture, the Voies Off Festival, and Galerie 127.
My network has been built over more than twenty years of hands-on experience and has led me to collaborate with major institutions, museums, and galleries — including the Centre Pompidou, SFMOMA, Foam, Tate, MET Tokyo, Caixa, Michael Hoppen Gallery, The Photographers’ Gallery, Galerie 51, and Howard Greenberg Gallery — on exhibition projects, co-curating, rights management, sales, and artistic development.
Since then, I have maintained genuine and long-standing professional relationships with these networks. As a result, once the work and positioning are ready, I am able to create relevant and targeted connections.
I have supported both emerging artists and major figures in photography, including Adrien Boyer, Dikayl Rimmasch, Franck Landron, Inès Dieleman, Carine Doutrelepont, Helen Margaret Giovanello, and Margherita Mariano, in institutional, editorial, and commercial contexts.
This experience gives me a comprehensive understanding of the challenges photographers face today: visibility, positioning, networking, discourse, dissemination, and relationships with professionals.
### My Approach to Mentoring
I work within a framework of trust, high standards, and transmission. The aim is to help each photographer:
* gain clarity,
* strengthen their singularity,
* develop their place within the field in a coherent and sustainable way.
I help photographers structure their practice, reveal the key strengths of their work, build a clear positioning, and articulate images, texts, and discourse. My goal is to enable them to navigate the photography ecosystem with accuracy and integrity, without losing their singularity.
Each mentoring programme is conceived on a tailor-made basis, according to the artist’s background, personality, rhythm, ambitions, and constraints.
I see mentoring as a space for reflection, dialogue, structuring, and artistic emancipation.
