About photographer

Belgian amateur photographer born in Namur and living in Habay-la-Neuve. In 2008 due to a knee injury, Michaël Massart was forced to give up sport and started taking a real interest in photography.

Self-taught and jack-of-all-trades, he mainly focuses on two fields: landscapes (especially with long exposures) and portraits.

What he is constantly looking for is to express any kind of emotion, surprise, build and stage the image in a unique way.

He encourages preparation and reflection on how to obtain the desired effect. What he likes most is the gestation period of a photographic idea during which he thinks about different possibilities of getting the expected visual effect without creating a photomontage. Not to mention the pleasure of making his models “suffer” for real.
