Découvrez le travail contemporain de ROUX DESJARDINS

I started photography with my father at the age of seven. I helped him develop his films and make black-and-white photo prints. At the age of eight, I got my first camera—it had three aperture settings, three shutter speeds, ISO selection, and a magnesium flash, which made it feel like real photography.

Throughout my career, I have always practiced photography. Working in medical and biological research, photography was primarily a tool for my job. I had to take pictures for iconography, including scientific publications. I used various photographic techniques such as macro photography, photomicroscopy, and autoradiography (working with photographic emulsions). Additionally, I developed tools for image analysis.

Over the years, I transitioned from film to digital photography. In 2013, I rediscovered my passion for photography and started with wildlife photography. I quickly developed a love for portrait photography, which eventually led me to fashion, boudoir, and nude photography.
