Jean-Marie Liot is a photographer specialised in sailing for 20 years. Racing, shooting for sponsors or for new boats from some famous shipyards, led him to travel all over the world. Jean-Marie Liot shoots cruising just like sailing races. He worked since the number 3 with Voile Magazine, and nowadays for Voiles & Voiliers. Jean-Marie followed big races (Vendée Globe and Transat Jacques Vabre as an official photographer and works today with photo agency Alea), he is also the official photographer of the Sailing Tour de France since 1996, and of many offshore skippers. You can also see his copyright on publicity photos for Jeanneau and Dufour shipyards.
Jean-Marie Liot currently devotes part of his schedule in food photography. A book produced in 2010 in collaboration with a solognote Chef will be the first step. Tastings and meetings, Jean-Marie Liot shoots Chefs and restaurants, recipes, and Packaging Studio.
Jean-Marie lives in Vannes with his large family.
A few days before the start of the Vendée Globe - this sailing race around the world, solo, non-stop and without assistance, nicknamed "Everest of the Seas"; the competing boats, 60-foot monohull sailboats belonging to the Imoca category, rest wisely at the pontoon, under the sun.
Everything that needed to be prepared on board has been prepared down to the smallest detail.
A deafening silence reigns over the pontoons. This wooden track usually trampled by thousands of people every day, who come to admire the racing beasts and their skippers, is reduced to inaction by this damn virus.
These marine adventurers, sportsmen but also extreme handymen, a little "crazy" to leave but who want to see again the Big South once they get back on land.
This image taken from the zenith exudes an incredible quiet strength when displayed on the wall in large format
