Hi, I’m Chloe
A passionate French-Lebanese photographer and filmmaker driven by the desire to unveil the world’s hidden beauty and complexities. I use my camera and pen as tools for change and innovation.
I am a versatile photographer and filmmaker based between Lebanon, Dubai and Europe, embracing the full spectrum of visual storytelling. My work encompasses documentary, abstract, and fine art photography and documentaries, allowing me to explore the world through countless lenses. Whether it’s capturing the essence of a moment or creating thought-provoking abstract images, I am dedicated to exploring the endless possibilities of photography.
My photos and films tell stories that evoke emotions and inspire thought and action. I invite viewers to feel, connect, and question the world around them, fostering empathy and understanding across cultures.
I am a versatile Lebanese, French, American photographer currently developing projects between Europe, Lebanon and the UAE.
My creative journey began in my youth and evolved into a profound focus on photography and filmmaking.
After living in Europe (France) for 15 years, I decided to go back home to Lebanon, fueled by a desire to explore and share the stories of diverse communities. This multicultural journey has shaped my unique perspective and ability to connect with people from all walks of life.
Holding an MA in Marketing and Sustainable Development, I worked for over 5 years as a communications consultant with international organizations, emphasizing humanitarian and developmental projects. Today, I continue my work in this field using my camera as a tool for change.
