Discover the contemporary work of Simon LAGOARDE
Born in 1984 in Paris, I quickly choose art instead of school things... Spending all my time drawing until I get graduated.Then I went in Beaux-Arts de Versailles (Versailles Art School), where I tried quite a lot of stuff during 3 years... At last, I choose Photography. In 2007 I finally choose to make photography my main work, so here I am...Gear & gadgets : I started photography with an Olympus OM40 wich belonged to my mum, in the past seven years I used 1930's Medium-format Voïgtlander, 4 optics Lomo camera, pinholes homemade cameras, some Kodak compact digital cameras and some other funny cameras. Now I'm working with Canon EOS film & digital cameras and a Mamiya RB Medium-format beauty.I'm not rich so I often take a look around the 'home made' garden of eden, it goes from studio accessories to remote control for my EOS babies... I'll try to write about my experimentations later
