Biography
Since the age of 17, Jeanne Taris has captured unrehearsed moments, situations filled with emotions, men and women who are out of the ordinary. In 2015 she signed up for a Leica workshop, then began a second life as a photojournalist who loves an immersive approach, with weeks and months devoted to a subject.
From the Ivory Coast to the Gitan quarter of Perpignan, each shot captures a moment, frozen in time, from a larger panorama – work that has become distinctive over the years.
