Frédéric Neema is an award-winning photographer based in the San Francisco Area.
Frédéric's career started in Paris in 1983. He was a student, majoring in Animal Biology with an interest in photography. The interest became a passion after Frédéric viewed a movie, "Circle of Deceit" by German director Volker Schlondorff, about a war photographer. He was convinced that he had found his passion and one month later, he joined a photo agency. |
