My name is Milie Del and I’m an alternative, lifestyle and indie photographer. Born in Drôme, France, of Belgian origin, I’ve been living and working in Montpellier for the last 5 years. As often as I can, I spin on the roads of the world and return with images of my adventures. I like to tell what we feel, lost in the jungle or on a road at the end of the world, the joy of the meeting, the adventure and the unknown. For me, to travel is to grow up, to learn and to understand always a little more about the world. And I always have my camera with me to take notes. What I love the most is to capture magnificent landscapes, the morning mist hanging on to the trees of a forest, the evening light before the storm, the shadows of the falling night, the power and magic that lies within wilderness and nature, freedom and nostalgia. Lover of nature, I like questioning the relation between mankind and its environment.
