Photographer: Olivier Vin (Brussels, Belgium) Registered
Born in April of 1969 in Brussels, Olivier Vin lived in Belgium, France and Portugal. He is actually based in Brussels, Belgium. When he was a young boy, he learned photography and darkroom work with his father, and eventually came back to photography, in this digital era, first with a point and shoot, then a DSLR and now a higher quality DLSR (EOS 5DMkII). He still shoots film time to time though. He profited from travels, live concerts, event of all sorts, to work the photo techniques and develop an amused but respectfull look at the world surrounding us. He likes to photograph people in their interaction with the world surrounding them and think photography is a wonderful medium to connect with people with respect and discover their cultures.
