Patrick Messina

What we had in mind for Patrick, was a very poetic set of photographic miniatures he had done in Paris for Hyatt.

That was the image we had of Patrick’s work. We dreamed of a model railway Paris seen from above. As is often the case with Portraits de Villes, Patrick went his own way and did something completely different.

He spent ages fixing his view camera to the front of his Vespa and sped off to shoot Paris by night on the boulevards des Maréchaux that ring the city.
