Kia Ora, I’m Marina, a travel and reportage photographer based in the southwest of France, discreet and a bit shy. If I am reserved, I nevertheless know how to express my sensitivity through my photos. Always endowed with an adventurous soul, I sailed to distant lands after my studies in tourism. The UK and New Zealand have been my countries of residence for the past 10 years.
My Kiwi passport in my pocket, it was at the end of 2024 that I decided to settle in another part of the world and continue to live from my passion in Canada. I started photography when I was 15 years old. Introverted by nature, I have since the beginning considered art as a wonderful means of expression, I who have never been very good with words.
When I started to travel, I combined my two passions. Whether in a bustling megalopolis, in the depths of Burma or at the top of an intimidating mountain, I like to reveal the beauty of a place through my photography.
Sometimes minimalist and conceptual, sometimes vibrant and full of details, my images reflect the emotion that gives me the subject that I meet or the place in which I am. I don’t limit myself to just one style of photography in particular, even though I’ve always been advised to specialize in order to make a name for myself. It is clear that I will probably never be a famous travel and reportage photographer, but at least I do whatever I please 🙂
