OUT OF THE BOX - Artistic Projects and Trials
Ludo Cazeba became a self-taught photographer alongside his work as an electro DJ, after studying to become a sound engineer.
His early trials in film and photography in New York led him to travel between Paris and Bangkok, where he conceived visuals with strangers met on the street, certified choreographers, musical groups and young creators, developing his first productions in studios and uniquely designed venues.
"Living on the sea" International Photo Awards. 3rd place landscape category and honorable mention advertising category
Ludovic has developed an art direction and worked on creative concepts for designers, receiving commissions from advertising agencies such as Ogilvy and magazines such as Harper's Bazaar, with many creative liberties (carte blanche). He collaborates with interior designers, architects and hotel groups to create original works, some of which have been nominated for awards.
Humanitarian and charitable projects
Committed to a better society, he supports associations, organizations and foundations. In particular, he took part in the group exhibition and auction organized by Photo Art Asia Magazine to raise funds for HIV orphans in Thailand.

A nomadic inspiration, Ludovic captures the essence of a variety of subjects on his road trips and client shoots between London, Tokyo, Reykjavik and Los Angeles:
Time-bound neon lights at the Neon Museum in Las Vegas
Strangers in front of Miami's urban murals
New collections will soon be available online, including a series of portraits of Greco-Roman statues captured between New York's Metropolitan Museum and the Louvre, as well as a series on Iceland's breathtaking landscapes.
Extraordinary art project
Carte blanche to 30 designers and creators
In collaboration with 40 models, make-up artists, hairdressers and assistants, Ludovic imagined a universe combining "clientele" and "staff" in a timeless, surreal hotel. The project, carried out over 6 days in a chateau near Paris, explores the boundaries between reality and fiction through theatrical photographic staging.
