Frédéric Vallotton, a pen of character

Sigfredo Haro

Frédéric Vallotton, a novelist and essayist from Morges, is what you might call a polymorphous personality. Indeed, his recent taste for veganism, his career as a man of letters, and his return to the political scene make him an unusual figure. A graduate of literature and formerly a journalist, he now teaches, notably at the evening gymnasium.

Photographe, Nyon, 1981

In 2009, I began my first photography courses and a year later I completed a Masters in “New realism, new documentalism” at the EFTI school in Madrid. In 2011, I worked as a freelance photographer in marketing, publicity and social photography. Such is my dedication to photography that I started to combine my professional and personal work with teaching courses in Madrid. Beginning of 2012, I moved to Nyon (Switzerland). No sooner arrived, I contacted a few local associations with which I started to collaborate as a volunteer photographer (Fondation Eduki, Terragir, J'aime ma Planete, Azimut FM, FILMAR, Les Hivernales). In May 2013, I won third prize at a local competition “Insolite nature in the city of Nyon”, which was a way to integrate my adopted community. In the middle of 2013, I started working sporadically for the daily newspaper “La Côte”. Since 2015 until now, I work full time for the above mentioned media.
