PETER BEARD, Photographer

"I like to hang on to things and see the sea changes, 

the wear and tear, the spills rain, and fire - how time works on everything."

" I've always thought of photography as life-tickening, 

life-enhancing, and something to hang onto. The camera is magic." 

" The time is always now."

himself, Peter BEARD

Born in NYC, Peter Beard is worldwide renowned for his mastery of the African wilderness. Mix of photographs, texts and drawings, he devoted his work to analyze the relation between humans and animals in Africa, especially in Kenya. 

In 2009, he has been chosen to shoot the Pirelli Calendar in Botswana. Breathtaking pictures… 

He's one of my favorite photographers of all time. I admire his mind-blowing staging. 

Wild & elegant. Natural & exotic…  

A Nomad Getaway ❊

Off to the woods. 

Let's go on the road for two days getaway, with family by my side. 

Driving to the Forest of Fontainebleau to find a lovely place to stay: an authentic Mongolian yurt. 

Two days of stroll, rest, joy and tranquility. Pure happiness. 

What a great experience to spend the night in such a pretty little home behind the trees. It's been a while that I haven't sleep outside ; cannot remember the last time actually. 

The yurt is kinda magical. The adorable ethnic furnitures make you feel that you are lost somewhere in the middle of vast plains, traveling for living... It creates a special atmosphere - a boho cocoon. 

Well the night wasn't so peaceful as we got a storm, but I liked it... Perfect harmony! 

We spent the days eating well, discovering some old villages, playing and making some new family souvenirs. Priceless! 

YES! I'm officially in holidays but no travel planned for this Summer. Gonna stay in the sunny Paris setting-up a new life project. We'll talk about it soon...
