Benoit Rousseau: A street photographer in Paris

About Benoit Rousseau:

I discovered photography in 2008 and decided to make it my main leisure. Before that I never pressed the shutter of an SLR...

I was wrong: shooting a good photo is a pleasurable moment. As soon as I have time (rarely between a job board director and a large family), I go hunting moments.

I am equipped with professional equipment: Canon 5D, 24mm f1.4 L, 50mm f1.4, 85mm f1.2 L, 150mm F.2.8, 16-35 mm f2.8 L, 24-70 mm f2.8 L, 28-300 f3.5-5.6 L before and I still dream of a 35mm f1.4 L, 70-200 f2.8 L or a new camera.

If you want to help me develop my art;) any proposal is welcome. I am especially attracted by human subject in urban context, snapshot, report ; those are, for the moment, my main practise ... But sometimes, when I have no choice, I shoot nature. The more I improve my work, the harder it is to produce good pictures ; but as long as we improve, the desire to go on remains.

If some of these pictures inspire you, thank you to let me know via Guestbook
