List of products by brand Claude Riou

Originally from Brittany, a Celtic land of legends, I grew up in this marvellous setting where art, the sea and picturesque landscapes have always gone hand in hand.

My camera has often accompanied me on my many travels around the world, enabling me to meet other cultures and peoples. From Asia to America, from Canada to Cape Horn, there have been many opportunities to experience this passion.
More naturally attracted by color, life, movement and detail, I've recently been seduced by Black & White.

Respectful of the world around me, I try to integrate the emotion I feel when I take a picture, so that your eyes find the same perception and emotions in my photos.

I've always used photography to share, to show the world as my eyes had seen it, as I had felt it. My favorite themes have always been landscapes, then encounters.
My Breton origins drew me towards the sea and related themes (boats, water).

Nevertheless, I see photography as a tool for bearing witness to the world as it is.
All my photos have one thing in common, which is to show details, with tight shots, to eliminate the superfluous, the useless, to concentrate only on the desired subject, and to bring in that dose of humanity that is so dear to me.

My greatest reward is when you look at one of these photos, without saying a word, and immerse yourself in it for a while... I can then be satisfied, because I know I've achieved my goal: to make you feel an emotion, or even take you on a journey.
