OUT OF TRIMSpotting Collection

Now based between the airports of Lyon, Grenoble and Chambéry, I grew up at the end of the runway at Basel-Mulhouse Airport, where I watched aircraft take off from my bedroom window. From an early age I went to the airport’s surroundings to log the machines I saw: a new airline, a new aircraft type, a special livery… Photos proved to be the ideal way to keep a record of the variants I had seen.

From 2007, the collection takes shape: every aircraft I photograph is logged, and I start travelling to other airports with the sole aim of spotting new aircraft. 2007: Zurich; 2008: Geneva, Frankfurt, Paris, Milan; 2009: London, Copenhagen, Brussels… I have since spotted on all 5 continents.
