Kyndt, Stéphane

Biography

Stéphane Kyndt, known as ©️Stékyndt, has been a professional photographer since 1997. Having first studied business and psychology, Stékyndt then taught himself photography, refining his framing, understanding his technique, and over time, finding a photographic style, which he describes as humanistic, colourful, warm and positive. Stékyndt spent ten years living and working in the United States, working as a photo correspondent specialising in celebrity photography. After photographing Michel Polnareff during his return to France and Johnny Hallyday for a three-week assignment along Route 66, Stékyndt returned to his homeland, France, but has since travelled extensively, including to Madagascar, Mexico, Colombia and Morocco. These documentary and street photography reportages have given Stékyndt the opportunity to exhibit several times in Paris. Stékyndt says, 'There is magic in photography, and this magic does not fade with time, quite the contrary... It is the eternity of yesterday.' Or, to quote Roland Barthes, 'What the photograph reproduces to infinity has occurred only once.'
