It is our humanness and our stories that allow us to connect more sincerely with others, and ultimately have the power to touch the heart and change the way the world, and our place within it, is seen.

Sebastien, born 1982 in Lisieux France, moved to England when he was nine. He began his studies of photography at secondary school and in 2004 he studied darkroom processing in Paris and Warsaw under photographer and artist Sebran D’Argent. Since 2001 Sebastien has travelled extensively, setting off on his first voyage in the autumn of that year, at the age of 19, with an Olympus OM10, a Polaroid camera, and a bag full of film. He first visited India in 2004, where he found a world that captured his imagination, and a journey that would evolve into a long and beautiful relationship with a country and continent that would inspire many years of photography.

Louise, born 1985 in Bath England, completed a BA in Art History at University College London in 2007. A long held interest in photography and a passion for Indian Art brought her and Sebastien together in 2006, and they have travelled and worked together ever since. 

Embarking on journeys that took them away from Europe for years at a time they developed a deep and intimate relationship with India, its people, and its land. Looking always for the simple beauties of daily life, they have been received with warmth into the heart of family homes where they have lived for many months alongside farmers and fisherman, brahmins and kings; capturing the everyday experiences that connect us all - the moments of peace in which we are all simply human.

Selling their work through street exhibitions in Paris, London and India, and to private buyers around the world, Sebastien and Louise have made it their life’s work ‘wandering’ across the globe creating poetic vignettes of their ethnographic experiences.

In 2011 a collection of their work was acquired for the Banaras Visual Archive as part of an initiative called Art for Banaras that aims to support the UNESCO nomination activities for the city's bid to become a World Heritage Site. It was exhibited at Kriti Gallery, Banaras, in January 2011.  

In 2012 Sebastien and Louise moved their focus away from Asia and closer to home, travelling by narrowboat through Britain’s historic Inland Waterways. Published in 2020, An Uneasy Paradise is their first publication; a photographic story of the community that have made boats their homes at the western edge of the Kennet and Avon Canal, with a solo show of this work held at The Halide Project’s Gallery in Philadelphia in 2022.

Returning to India in 2022, this time as a family of four, Sebastien and Louise have spent the past years finishing a long term project, An Imagined Reality.

With over two decades of experience in photography, Sebastien and Louise have developed a unique blend of technical expertise and creative vision that spans across multiple continents and photographic mediums. Throughout their careers, they have traveled extensively, capturing the world through their lenses and sharing their vision with a diverse range of audiences. This journey has included everything from shooting editorial work for magazines to curating exhibitions, publishing a photo book, and working with prestigious clients such as CGH Earth Hotel Group and Shashank Narayanan Singh’s art collection. Their commitment to the craft has extended into teaching and mentorship, with a strong belief in the power of photography as a tool for expression and self-discovery.
