PAIVA

Born and raised in Venezuela, I have been living in France since 2003. I first came to Paris inspired by images from films of the French New Wave, but since I could not find them, I started creating my images... Photography started to be a real passion for me from 2010 onwards. A 365 project and many self-portraits followed. The self-portraits, in particular, allowed me to explore the possibilities of photography in a comfortable and reassuring environment... In 2012, I decided to test my way of seeing in Lifestyle photography. As IP-Photographe, I've learned about traditions and costumes I did not know about, and this curious and detached disposition has allowed me to capture fleeting moments in the lives of my clients.
