About The Collection

Capturing moments of fleeting life is my way of documenting our ever-changing daily life. My approach in a society saturated with image where perfection has become codified, is to highlight the true beauty of the human being, that which we come across everyday but that we no longer notice. I always try to isolate only one person in my photos to give an aspect of solitude facing the city.

Nicolas Ettori
I was born in 1987 in Montpellier (south of France) where i grew up and now i live in Paris. Self-taught, my passion for photography comes from my love of skateboarding: wanting to capture tricks in motion and freeze them forever. Later my interests went beyond the sport to where I find myself today in the world of street photography. I like to capture the moments of life, to compose and frame the world with what the street offers at every moment.
I try to highlight the details, play between the light and shade, observe the reflections, and let the geometry dictate the angle of my shots, all of which come together to create my own style.
I’ve recently started analog photography because it needs to be triggered more carefully and i like having to wait the development of the film before seeing the result.

Jasmin Gendron
I’m a French Canadian Photographer residing in Nikko, Japan. I consider myself an autodidact who gets inspired by trips, trivial, and events to step out of my comfort zone. I like to use street photography to immortalize energy and emotions from magnificent, human, and comical scenes. When taking photos, I prefer an unobtrusive approach. It helps me to explore how the environment impacts human actions and decisions.

About The Collection

For the last couple of years, I’ve been spending quite a lot of time exploring daily life and searching for uniques scenes in one of the most exciting cities in the world; Tokyo. Since my first visit in 2006, the Japanese Capital has always been an endless source of inspiration, and I am very grateful to be able to capture and document it on a regular basis. Armed with my camera, I’ve walked in the streets of Tokyo more than in any other city in the world, and I want to keep exploring its super crowded and popular areas as much as its hidden and unknown district. On the other side, I am also very grateful to be living in the mountains of Tochigi. The World Heritage Site, Nikko’s beautiful nature, and the thousands of tourists coming over every year help me to balance my work as a photographer.
This collection is a random selection of my favorite photographs taken over the past years in Tokyo and Nikko.

Valérie Six
Born in the North of France, I am a freelance photographer based in Bordeaux.
Although I bought my first camera only in 2012, the medium quickly became an indispensable element of my life.
At the beginning, not knowing clearly what I wanted to do with it, I followed some workshops with famous photographers of different specialties (war reporter, street, portraits …), exciting weeks which confirmed me in my wish to pursue this passion. In 2015, I completed these sessions with a short technical training at the Gobelins school in Paris, but it is mainly in practicing alone in the streets that I learned the most.
Winner or finalist of numerous awards, my images have been exhibited in France and abroad (Bordeaux, Arles, Marseille, London, Miami, Milan, Kuala Lumpur, Brussels and New York…) and published in numerous online or print magazines.
Winner of the “Women street photographers” contest for an artist residency in New York city in December 2019 (WSP is a platform, Instagram feed, website and traveling exhibitions curated by Gulnara Samoilova), a selection of my residency’s work was presented last year in a solo exhibition in NYC, alongside WSP’s annual exhibition in Dec. 2019-Jan. 2020.
Ever since I started the photo, I have not ceased, beyond the pure aesthetic aspects, to look for the attitudes, the backgrounds, the small details of our daily life which, associated with a particular light (often a chiaroscuro) allow me to project myself- and the viewers too, I hope – into a universe halfway between fiction and reality. Photos like small improvised theatrical scenes or sequences of dreams, results of a small wait or taken on the fly, but a reflection always in my eyes of a particular emotion (humor, romance, mystery, surprise…), or a reflection of my interrogations about the aspects often absurd, often chaotic and obscure of the lives we live.
There is at the same time in my images, the desire to better understand my environment and that of the person crossing my frame, as well as transcending it to bring a little extra magic or poetry.
