Who am I ?
I am a management engineering student at FUCaM Mons, currently in my first year of a Master's in Business Analytics. A passionate professional photographer, I have been practising for a year. I have had the opportunity to collaborate with numerous clients, including the Catholic University of Louvain in Mons, for which I have been the official photographer since September 2024, as well as the automotive group APEX, with whom I have been working for several years.
Photography has always been my passion. Like many, I started with my phone, but in 2022, I decided to take it to the next level by buying my first drone. It was from this experience that the idea of creating Above Belgium was born, a name that literally means "above Belgium." Since then, my project has evolved significantly, especially after acquiring my first proper camera. Thanks to online videos, I quickly learned to master it, and since then, I haven't grown tired of it.
