Originally from the island of Guernsey, Jean-Luc now lives and works in Brighton, where he divides his time between commercial commissions and personal photographic projects.
A fascination with the nocturnal world is apparent in the majority of his work; this fascination is apparent in both his personal projects & commissioned work. Fiercely independent he enjoys working in a number of different fields & revels in the variety & freedom that ensues from his refusal to be tied down to one particular genre of photography.
He has spent a number of years documenting youth cultures and music scenes & producing images for the music industry & press. Although something of a night owl he also produces work for more commercial clients during daylight in the areas of portraiture, architecture & food photography.
In his personal projects his fascination with the nocturnal world is also matched by his interest in landscapes. His most recent body of work, entitled Nocturnal Arboreal combines both elements in a series of surreal night time tree landscapes.
Previous bodies of work have dealt with subject matter such as; twilight landscapes of northern Finland during midwinter and midsummer, seascapes featuring distant vessels, World War two coastal fortifications in the Channel Islands and open air crime scenes.
In 2009 Jean-Luc was shortlisted for the Royal Academy Summer show & as one of the 15 finalists in the British Journal of Photography’s International Photography Award in the single image category.
