What they say About me

A gesture. A look. A movement. An emotion. Beyond technicality, photography reveals the extra soul hidden behind a person, a scene, a moment.

In a decade, he has understood better than anyone else what animates the daily life of horse and riding enthusiasts. A caress on the neck, a kiss on the muzzle, an angry fist raised to the sky when victory is in sight... he captures these details that few manage to distinguish in the tumult of competitions.

His ability to renew himself and to bring a new eye to this hushed world gives him a singularity that rarely escapes the eyes of lovers of beautiful images.

Quite simply because the emotion can be read in each of his pictures. Pure, without artifice, without interpretation, without distortion. By turns whispering and exploding, his images offer a natural reading of the intimate relationship woven between human beings and animals.

As if, hidden in the background of their lives, he quietly captures the substance of their infinite links.

Work

When people ask me what equipment I use, I tell them 'my eyes'.

As if, hidden in the background of their lives, he quietly captures the substance of their infinite links.

Whiteboard Syndrome

Everything holds beauty, But not Everyone Sees it.

Black and white

Photography erases

time from the equation

Black & White

Play With Shadows

All

the beauty of life is made of light and shadow.

Feels & Captures

Whatever is good for Your soul Do that.

A UTHENTICIT Y

Christophe Tanière's work is considered authentic because it comes from himself. When he creates a photograph, it is because he feels in tune with who he is.

Elegance is when the inside is as beautiful as the outside.

Obey Curiosity

For him, photography remains what it was for more than a century: a faithful testimony of reality. He is content to give it back its truth, to magnify it, to make it immortal. Like an irrefutable proof of our passage through this world, beautiful and intense, like a star that never ceases to shine, not by its brilliance but by its evocative power.
