Dare to live differently
Who hasn't dreamt of living in perfect harmony with themselves and others?

Photo Workshops
Learn and practise landscape photography in a unique environment
Every year since 2010, I have been keen to share my passion for mountain photography through photo workshops. During these one- or multi-day workshops, I propose to walk to some places of exceptional beauty and take the time to observe, feel, and finally capture in images the landscapes that surround us.
This video provides a small insight of what we experience during these unforgettable moments.
MADANI
The man who greens the desert
In the heart of the Sahara, where the sun scorches the sand and shade is but a memory, stands an unexpected haven of greenery: Oasis Source de Vie (Oasis Source of Life). Behind this extraordinary oasis is a man of unshakeable will, Madani Hanana.
This former Saharan nomad has turned his dream into reality. His story is a message of hope, inspiration and a symbol of resilience. It shows us that great things can be achieved with patience, perseverance, creativity and a deep respect for the environment.
"Graine de Vie" (Seed of Life)
A hymn to life and our vegetable garden
Céline and I worked for several weeks on a subject that fascinated us, because we carefully looked after it, saw it grow, day after day, and also, because it nourishes us, in different ways.
A subject that has become deeply ingrained in us over the last few years.
Put on your boots or clogs. Take a basket and a knife if you like. We are delighted to share this new video, entitled "Graine de vie" (Seed of life), with you as a hymn to life and to our vegetable garden.

After many years of photographing the Swiss mountains under their most beautiful light, Samuel published in 2015 the book MAJESTICS, in which he gathers the quintessence of this work. The film of the same name, which you can watch below, invites the viewer to join Samuel in the field in order to discover his work during the making of his images.
