Instruduction
Today I would be talking about a livin genius, I think this contest deserve a happy ending. Don't you think so too?.
On this note i would be talking about an interesting character, though he is a guy, I know i promised to write about a female and i changed my mind and choose this guy 😂.
Pls forgive my wonderful readers.
Trust me you would fall inlove with his natural talent just like i did. Without wasting much time let me introduce the genius of the day.
Francois Halard
To Francois Halard his camera was his tool of protection and also of protection.
He was born hemiplegic in 1961 in France but now lives in New york and France. which made him unable to speak well. Growing up he was withdrawn and introverted .
He was born into a wealthy home , so his parent could afford a very comfortable house. He would spend most of His time looking at pictures in magazines his parent bought. They where mostly architecture and fashion magazines.
He studied at Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-art in Paris.
How He started taking pictures
As a little boy, he would take his father's camera and take pictures of his room and everything around him.
Most times other photographers would come to there house and take pictures of there beautiful house for magazines back drops. He would prefer to watch them take pictures than go to school.
Though his school was just acroos the street, he had more fulfilment looking at those photographers do their work than attend and most times he would offer to assist them or just watch.
At age 14 he decided to be a photographer, but his parents fought against it, so every vacation instead of travelling he would work with a photographer as an assistant so he could learn more.
In 1984 He moved to New York where he was regularly commisioned fro several publictions.
- Conde Nast
- American Vogue
- Vanity Fair
- GQ
- House and Garden
why i choose Him
Just like the rest, he has an outstanding quality.
- He was never limited by his physical conditions
- He never depended on His parents wealthy, he took reponsibility of his life.
- He was a goal getter.
- He is a Natural in his field
- He is a living Genius, I had promised to end this with a happy story.
