French born in Vittel (la flotte) 1954. No 3 of four boys, grows up in small village, goes to mass on Sundays, little sh*t rest of the week.

Private-Personal Chef to Mick Jagger, Prince Khalid Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, millionaires/ billionaires businessmen, Lords & Ladies… that’s another 19years and 3/4. Or roughly 40 jobs, between 70 and 95 hours a week. Become an excel-lent photographer. Very proud Dad of two gorgeous daughters, Jessica and Poppy, living with their Mums.
