Born in Le Locle in 1971, Christian Bromley is from Ponte Tresa, from an Italo-Swiss mother and a Pied-noir father. He spent his childhood tossed about by his parents between art and culture, then flourished in sport, notably athletics, boxing and climbing. At the age of sixteen, he received from the hands of his father, himself a photographer, his first camera; a ZENIT. It was then that his true passion was born: photography. It therefore becomes a second life, a new area that he will explore brilliantly. A graduate in civil engineering and reinforced concrete, a field in which he would never work, and steeped in a natural and insatiable curiosity, he embarked on a new adventure and turned to the IT field. A passionate autodidact, he mastered this complex field and created his own company. In the basement of this one, he set up his first photography studio, thus allowing the expression of his first passion. He learns alone, tests, experiments, touches on the macro, the portrait then the artistic nude. This last area then becomes a revelation for him. Christian thus discovers the magic of revealing the beauty of a body thanks to a subtly studied play of shadows and lights. He then devoted himself exclusively to his art, opened a new studio and thus made his passion his job. To date, he has assembled a team of professional hairdressers and make-up artists and considerably expanded his photographic fields. He is recognized as well in wedding photography, events, maternity, family portraits and shares his knowledge with passion by giving lessons. 30 years later, he exercises his art with the same care and the same passion.
