ABOUT ME
A teacher with a photography habit, Etienne’s true passion is enabling other photographers to find and create better images of the places that mean most to him. He believes that the best way to learn is to teach and he’s happiest helping fellow photographers to improve.
Hoi An Photo Tour & Workshop was initially a one-person show, but Etienne has now assembled a team of outstanding photography guides and teachers, all based –as he is –in Asia. Although each of them is a unique individual, they share Etienne’s vision: hands-on photography tuition in image-rich environments.
Etienne’s deep love for Vietnam and Asia shines through in every picture he takes. He has an appreciation for authentic Asian locations, cultures and traditions that breaks down barriers, and lets you get closer to the people you most want to photograph. He’s an instructor with an artist’s soul.
My first job as a photographer was to actually teach photography. Hoi an Photo Tour & Workshop was born from my passion for sharing the joys of people photography.
The will to travel and explore new areas of Asia pushed me to begin organizing longer photography tours in new countries. Since 2012 I have been running photography tours through Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Iran, BAngladesh, India and Sri Lanka.
I am also a working professional photographer and videographer working with hospitality businesses, food and bevrage companies, the fashion industry and much more.
