Life’s for The Living
There are places on this planet that I want to see once in my life. This beach was on the list. After a few hours of hiking we discovered this place that you can reach only by foot. It is very well-preserved and you can cross the path of others hikers who camps in this area. Shot in Kvalvika beach, Lofoten, Norway.
Kingdom Come
Sunrise at 6 A.M, the atmosphere was special. A cold morning after a short night of sleep. I was above three lakes, lake of Joux, Léman and Neuchâtel to see the first lights of the morning. A great experience that I like to share here. Shot from the top of Mont-Tendre (1679 m).
Hard Times
Two years after my first experience (see Racing with the Sun) at the “Patrouille des Glaciers“, I went to see the race again. Leaving Lausanne during the night, I went to Arolla them Verbier. A white night to follow the race. Great times. This time the race was not stopped and I could shoot the climbing of the top of the Col de Riedmatten (2919 m) with a long exposure setting.
Stolen Dance
Backcountry skiing (with ski skins) offers you the most beautiful landscapes during the winter season. You leave the city and after less than one hour you can feel yourself in the mountains. On this picture you can see the Dent de Lys (2104 m) and in the background the Vanils, a famous mountains chain that I plan to cross this summer. Shoot from the top of Teysachaux, Switzerland. (1909 m)

A Quantum of Sun
Starting from Lourtier we decided to climb up the Mont Rogneux (3084 m). On the way up we stopped at the Brunet Hut, to have a look of the surrounding mountains especially the Becca de Sery (2863 m), the sun was low so we have this wonderful shadows. Shot above Lourtier, in Val de Bagnes, Switzerland.
Reflektor
This a view of the Miroir d’Argentine (2422 m). I’m always happy to see it, I climbed his Northwest face this summer, no need to say that I’m very proud. It also a nice place to walk in the nature and you can get around it in a one day hike. I came back here this morning in backcountry ski and have a powder snow experience in this beautiful landscape. Shot in Solalex, above Villars, Switzerland.
Southern Snow
Beginning of the winter season, the first backcountry skiing expedition. The weather is not so snowy and cold here, but we have some wonderful landscapes. We expect more snow to come and we are really looking for it ! Shot near Solalex, above Gryon, Switzerland.
Ho Hey
We start our hike from l’Erié and we climb to the summit of the Grand Chavalard (2899 m). We met some alpine Ibex and this view on the valley of Rhone. Shot above Fully, Valais, Switzerland.
