François de Najac (b. 1971) is a documentary photographer and storyteller.
Through his photography, François explores the transmission of cultural identity across generations in a context of migration, rapid urbanization and greater permeability to global content through social media. He has focused on communities of East and South-East Asian descent. François has on-going projects in Paris, France; New York and Tennessee, USA; Bangkok, Thailand; and Huế, Vietnam.
François uses photography as a medium to meet people. He favors candid photography, to let his emotional sensors react to the subject or situation, light and color, without the filter of the mind. François believes that photography can also be a helpful form of expression for subjects through collaborative approaches, especially when words are failing.
Photo Gear: Sony a6600, Sony a7iii
