My name is Yann Riche, I'm an amateur photographer born in France, living in Seattle, WA, USA. I was given my first camera in 2003, and I have bought many others since then. I mainly shoot with my faithful digital SLR, but occasionally enjoy using my film SLR, a compact digital, or a disposable camera. The picture is not in the medium, it's in the vision!

• I do not cringe at dark aspects of our lives, nor am I bored by the mundane.
• I like capturing people, the way I perceive their personnality, my vision of the person behind the mask.
• I do not like bullies, and I'm big enough to tell them so.
• I cry during sad parts of a movie.
• I practice scuba diving, that's my other passion.
• I love and miss cheese (good cheese is a luxury in the US).
