"Hélène Binet has emerged as one of the leading architectural photographers in the world. Every time Hélène Binet takes a photograph, she exposes architecture's achievements, strength, pathos and fragility." (Daniel Libeskind) Hélène Binet was born in 1959 in Sorengo and is of both Swiss and French background. She currently lives in London with her husband Raoul Bunschoten and their two children, Izaak and Saskia. She studied photography at the Instituto Europeo di Design in Rome, where she grew up, and soon developed an interest in architetural photography. Over a period of twenty-five years Hélène Binet has photographed both contemporary and historical architecture. Her list of clients include architects Raoul Bunschoten, Caruso St. John, Zaha Hadid, Daniel Libeskind, Studio Mumbai, Peter Zumthor, and many others. While following the work of contemporary architects -- often from construction through completion -- Hélène Binet has also photographed the works of past architects as Alvar Aalto, Geoffrey Bawa, Le Corbusier, Sverre Fehn, John Hejduk, Sigurd Lewerentz, Andrea Palladio, and Dimitris Pikionis.More recently, Hélène Binet has started to direct her attention to landscape photography, wherein she transposes key concerns of her architectural photography. Hélène Binet's work has been published in a wide range of books, and is shown in both national and international exhibitions.Hélène Binet is an advocate of analog photography and therefore she exclusively works with film. 3/19/12

4. What the hell is she talking about ? It's gobbledigook
5. Her comments are so empty. I really listened to it, but all what she says comes down to "here I focused on the shadow. sometimes I do color, which is necessary. To work with light is difficult. I was thankful to be there." ...so empty sentences.
