Worldograph and documenting/reporting on NGOs and development organisations work. Hi, I'm Arthur !

Technique is what first drew me to photography. Better not miss!

Currently based in Amman, Jordan, my work mostly consist of photo and video coverage of cultural and artistic events (concerts, festivals, shows, spectacles...) Playing with the settings, the light, with movements...
I found my favourite subject quickly after I put my hands on a camera: wildlife. A most inspiring subject yet one amongst the hardest to capture. The tracking, playing hide & seek whi

le the animals are rarely still and offer you only limited movements, limited angles, no control over the lighting... and very few opportunities. The challenges are many but I find the adrenaline and the rewards far more satisfying than any other kind of photography. When the concrete jungle is my only playground, I enjoy mostly long exposure shots at night which suit best my love of the night time. They let me capture the lights that sublimate their cities and make them so beautiful and dreamy in the darkness. Additionaly, I have recently taken interest in capturing everyday moments around me, testimonies of local lives and oddities. I cut many of my photographs with a very wide format which I've been increasingly using over time. Besides it simply being a personnal favourite, I believe it allows for interesting ways to focus on the subjects, letting the photographs show a lot while yet leaving more than enough to imagination, hence conferring the photographs a strong evocative power. I hope you enjoy my photographs. Feel free to contact me, I'm always happy to meet new people.

Video produced for Expertise France about the twinning they are implementing with the Jordanian المؤسسة العامة للضمان الإجتماعي - Social Security Corporation.

Funded by the European Commission, the project aims at improving the working conditions in through the extension of insurance against occupational accidents, improve care, accident prevention and rehabilitation of workers.

It's not only a fascinating subject to work on but also a very important one for population around the world and I'm glad I had the chance to witness some of it and help spread awareness while meeting and working with great people (Anne Bnr, Mohammad & Wafa'a!)

Through this twinning project, the European Union and Expertise France work with the Jordanian Social Security Corporation to support the work injury insuran...

A few months ago, Sami reached out to me after seeing some of my work, he was looking for an editor to do some changes on his film - a 20 minutes long documentary on the Palestinian indie music scene. I was glad to hear that he appreciated my work and honoured that he would trust me with his "baby". Re-editing was also something that I had never done before and I was happy to take on that new challenge.
After browsing through terabytes and terabytes of footage, hours of suffering using his MacBook for the editing (compatibility issues, couldn't use my PC 😨), numerous meetings IRL and online, some copyright headaches and making a new friend, I delivered a final cut that we were both proud of. 🥳
Politics is never far when talking about Palestine, yet the film smartly takes a different angle on the topic and challenges that notion while amplifying the voices of talented budding artists and discussing the difficulties they face, some known to every artist around the world others unique to them.

Enjoy the film ! 🎞😊

Crisis? What crisis?

Little tour in downtown Amman, hours before the full 72h Eid lock down, enjoying the exceptional curfew extension until 11pm and the fresh air of the night after a week of increased temperatures. ☀️🔥
It is so nice to see the streets teeming with life - people buying sweets to celebrate the end of Ramadan, other dancing to music - and yet a bit worrying to see so little masks and gloves or social distancing (well ok, I was there too XD).
The 🇯🇴 Kingdom's figures regarding the pandemic have been quite impressive and hopefully will remain low and under control as the country opens up again step by step. 💪

Eid Mubarak/Blessed Eid everyone !
Stay safe and take care !

Friday night, hours before the curfew kicks in.Great roaming around an empty Amman with Rajiv Raman.
