About Artist

Thierry Lagnel

I am a published and exhibited amateur photograper from the french speaking part of Switzerland. I am born in 1992 and I began to see interest in photography in 2016. I really started in 2018 with animal / wildlife photography. In 2023, I switched for street photography, mainly in black and white. A few months later, I exhibited a photo abroad for the first time and I exhibited a few photos all over the world in 2024. I never took part in photography courses but we can say that I have this in my blood because my grandfather and his father, my great-grandfather, were both professional photographers in the small town where I spent my childhood.
