Hello, I'm the Photographer !
My love for photography stems from my early years studying Fine Arts at the University of Mauritius. I fell in love with photography the same way I fell in love with my husband, one day at a time and everyday all over again. I bought my first DSLR camera in 2009 and never stop practicing since then.
I quit my full time job as a graphic designer and took a chance on myself and dove head-first into photography. I enjoyed being a graphic designer for 10 beautiful years. I designed logos for prestigious hotels, did creative illustrations for famous brands, been part of several successful campaigns and worked for two leading advertising agencies. But the joy and fulfillment that photography brings in my life is incomparable. It's been 7 years now that I'm living my dream job. I'm grateful to God for guiding and inspiring me everyday and in every way.
I like every aspect of being a photographer; the people I meet, sharing people's happy moments, and the joy of post-editing pictures.
My husband is the videographer !
Jean-François is the one who has been with me from the very start of my journey in photography. He's my life partner and my one true love and we've been married since 2015. After assisting me on shootings and weddings, we decided to dive into videography. He trained and we equipped ourself so as to create authentic, natural and emotional wedding videos that tell your story. We are a happy married duo working together for 6 years. Besides videography, Jean-François is a business secondary teacher and a good pianist, passionate about music.
Once upon a time an angel held my hand. She wiped away my tears and helped me understand our time on Earth is brief . She loved us unconditionally, always by our side. When no one else would listen, in her we could confide. With gentle words of wisdom, she led us on our way, Thank you mum for everything ❤️
