Julia Rambaud...
On The Other Side of the camera stands Julia Rambaud, a French native born in Paris but now residing in between London and Ibiza for over a decade.
My journey into photography began when my father gifted me an old film camera during my childhood. Since then, I've cultivated my unique perspective, interests and style through a combination of academic exposure and personal exploration.
I view the world through a Canon T90 (Film Camera), exclusively capturing black & white photographs, as I believe in the profound power of the simplest colour palette. None of my photos undergo retouching because they encapsulate a specific moment in time, celebrating the beauty found in imperfections.
As I traverse the globe, my focus primarily centers on landscapes and women. Through my lens, I aim to capture the multifaceted strength and independence of women, portraying them not just as subjects but as powerful protagonists of their own stories.
I like to create a dark and sensual scenery behind each image, juxtaposing the profound elegance of the female form against stark, evocative backdrops. This interplay of light and shadow serves to enhance the emotional intensity of the scene, inviting viewers to delve into a deeper, more contemplative understanding of the subject. Through this approach, I hope to challenge conventional perceptions and evoke a sense of empowerment and reverence for the women I photograph.
In addition to my personal work, I also offer photoshoots for individuals, children, friends... who want to see themselves on their walls, not just as portraits but as art.
I work exclusively in black and white film, often using slow shutter speeds to create a sense of movement. This technique gives the images a softness and texture that feels almost like a charcoal drawing, timeless, emotional and poetic.
