Jeanne de Mercey

«Movement in Stillness» Usually when I take pictures, playing with light, lines and colours are the ingredients I love to mix to achieve subtile composition and impactful storytelling. In this series, I tried to capture precisely the pivot point between life and immobility in order to create a flow both inherently in each photograph, and as a whole. It is about a conversation between motion and calmness using the composition lines as a balance. «Photography is an irresistible need to share the joy that came to you through your eyes.» (Robert Doisneau) I am a mom above all else. My three energetic and joyful kids are my very first source of energy and inspiration. They probably cover 90 % of my 2TB hard drive files! What I enjoy the most is capturing their smile and genuine moments, although "calmness" here may not be the best way to describe the shots!
