Hi, I'm Nolwenn
MY PHILOSOPHY
I believe in the magic of moments and the power of photos to make us relive them endlessly. For me, being a photographer is a true privilege. Capturing unique moments, telling stories, and revealing people’s identities through my lens allows me to preserve memories that will last a lifetime. Because in life, every moment is irreplaceable, and I love capturing them to create unforgettable memories.
I place great importance on simplicity and authenticity, which is why I specialize in Lifestyle shoots and photo reports.
I love capturing candid moments, emotions, connections between people, and passions.
Although I sometimes take posed photos during shoots, I mainly follow a Lifestyle approach, which allows me to guide you to create life moments, capture emotions, and produce photos that truly reflect who you are! I am here to make you feel comfortable, no judgment between us—you can be yourself without hesitation—to get natural images and create new memories together, a true moment of sharing!
My goal, beyond taking beautiful photos, is to really tell your story!
A Little about me
Smile at life and life will smile back at you!
A CHILD OF THE WORLD
Daughter of military parents, since my birth, I’ve lived 14 years in mainland France (in 9 different cities), 2 years in Réunion, 5 years in Morocco, 6 months in the United States, 2 years in Madagascar, 1 year in Australia, 8 years in New Caledonia, 3 years in Madrid, where I’ve just settled for an indefinite period…
MY PROFESSIONAL CAREER
I have a Master’s degree in Management (American), a Bachelor’s degree in Business Studies (Spanish), a Master’s degree in Management (French), and after several years in business and 1 year as an RPM coach (Les Mills), in January 2019, I finally dared to professionally pursue what I’ve truly loved since I was 15… Photography! And since then, it’s only been happiness!
MY LOVES
I have 3 loves: my daughter Maina, who made me discover unconditional love, her older brother Pancho, a German Shepherd cross Australian Cattle Dog, and my partner Manuel, who now accompanies me professionally in video.
MY TREASURE
My most precious belongings… my photo albums, 1 to 3 per year since I was born!
Eating
I must admit, eating is truly a pleasure, and if it involves cheese or peanuts in all forms, even better!
Dancing & Water Sports
When I dance, I feel alive!
I’ve practiced more than ten different styles and danced in a troupe when I was in Nouméa, and this year I’m discovering two new styles: Flamenco and Sevillanas!
I practice many water sports (unfortunately, less on a daily basis in Madrid), including KiteSurfing and Wakeboarding.
By the way, at the moment I’m writing this, my next travel destination is… Dakhla, to fly high on a Kite!
Enjoying moments with my loved ones
More than loving to do things in life, I love sharing them with people, and if possible, those I love! And if it also involves a sunset, I love it even more!
Traveling
Traveling is an adventure that transforms us at every stage. It’s an opportunity to discover new horizons, meet people, and explore different cultures. Each destination brings us surprises, laughter, and sometimes even unexpected moments that turn into unforgettable memories. It’s also an opportunity to disconnect from everyday life, breathe in some fresh air, and return with a new perspective on life. In short, it’s an adventure.
The part of the world still unexplored for me? South America! We’re going to have to remedy that quickly!!
If you feel like traveling a bit, I invite you to take a look at my portfolio, under the “Travel” category.
NO ME GUSTA…
…el frío ni la lluvia, tomar decisiones, las injusticias y la soledad.
THANK YOU
I am so grateful for this profession as a photographer, for all these encounters, all these moments of sharing.
Thank you to all those who have trusted me, and to all those who have renewed that trust.
Thank you, life!!
And of course, thank you for reading this far, ahah
IN A CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT APPROACH
I believe it is always important to improve in life, both personally and professionally, as we always have room for growth, to become a better version of ourselves.
That’s why, in photography, I love challenging myself, learning from others, and questioning myself. In this way, I aim to offer you reports of even higher quality.
I have specifically undergone coaching with Alison Bounce, a Corporate training with Delphine Denans, a creative lighting workshop in the studio with Etienne List, not to mention exchanges with other photographers and personal research.
I was awarded the title of Portraitist of France 2023; it’s not a competition but an exam to measure the quality of French photographers’ work.
I once participated in a competition (Regard d’Auteur) and received the “challenger” award, and I fully intend to participate more starting this year with other competitions… stay tuned!
