Official Photographers
Between sky and earth, the official photography team immortalizes the finest moments and atmosphere of the Coupe Icare.
Alain Douce
"As a photographer and mountain guide, I enjoy capturing expressions, movements, and visual choreography that reveal the world around us.
My photography spans corporate, landscape, architectural, and real estate work, alongside a more artistic side all recharged by nature, the mountains, and the great outdoors.
For over 20 years, through my multifaceted perspective on the Coupe Icare, I’ve aimed to share a glimpse of what makes this world-class event so unique. Capturing this diversity every year is a true joy the joy of connecting with people and sharing these moments."

Johan Chemin
"As a photographer always on the lookout for a smile, I love showcasing skills and craftsmanship through my lens. The Coupe Icare is basically one giant playground for me! I live right across from the Lumbin landing zone and I'm also a certified mountain guide."
Thibaud Galai
"A Mechanical Engineering student and photographer for the past six years, I launched my freelance business in 2024 when I turned 18. My work focuses mostly on sports photography—from climbing, paragliding, and mountaineering to underground and ice exploration, which allows for a more artistic and composed approach. As Bruno Lavit’s 'Young Padawan' and having grown up with the Coupe Icare, I’ve been stepping into his shoes for three years now!"
Sara Lion
"Hi, I'm Sara! As a portrait photographer, I work with natural light to create warm, bright images. What I love most are spontaneous moments—capturing people in the moment, without stiff poses. My secret weapon? Making people feel comfortable so their true selves shine through, capturing the candid glances, small gestures, and quiet moments that tell the real story of the day."
