About

I'm a French photographer based in Hong Kong developing my passion for photography early in my childhood by using my dad's 35mm film camera. 

Urban and cityscape are places that allow me to break out of my shell, finding out human thoughts, rêveries and poetry within urban landscapes. In 2007, I started my first photography project name "Urban Thoughts" . It took me to far areas of the world from North America to South East Asia passing by Europe to enrich my concept and photographing techniques. 

This same year, one of my creation, called "Urban Reflection I" has been short listed in the London Renaissance prize Photography

In 2016, I started a new project "People Steps" followed by one exhibition in Hong Kong. 

As pictures are better than words, I invite you to go through my gallery and find out my style ! And if you are interested to collaborate with me and create something, feel free to contact me at romain.barthe@gmail.com or via instagram @heero84
