Julien “Binch” Binet
Profile:
The saying: “Jack of all trades, master of none” does not apply to Binch. He seems able to master pretty much everything he turns his laser-focus onto - whether it’s capturing the moment or being a central part of it.
He is a competition-winning surfer (humbly claiming “just Northern France”), highly-skilled videographer, and, as co-founder of Turbulente Kombucha, a master-brewer and entrepreneur.
Anyone else would be spread too thin as a brand ambassador, creator, businessman and Biarritz mover & shaker - but he takes it in his stride, finding time to balance work and play with the odd trip abroad.
As the co-founder at Turbulente, he’s responsible for creative direction including imagery and packaging, and as an ambassador for Katin and Wigwam Store, he’s often pulled in front of the camera.
He shoots events, action, products and landscape - always looking for a different perspective, angle or light to make the viewer pause.
He has very interesting project in the works relating to slow travel down the coast of western France, taking in a completely different perspective to the typical tourist experience. Stay tuned for Cabotage….
