France is a street and documentary photographer from Quebec, Canada, living in Chicago. She has spent many years in academia trying to understand why people behave like they do. Her photography, which France initially described as “life photography,” reflects this curiosity. She aims to capture a beautiful moment showing how people live, eat, dress, interact, celebrate, pray, and love… and the “streets” are where she finds these moments. Most recently, in 2023, one of her images won 3rd place at the Lens Culture Street Photography Award and was a finalist at the Italian Street Photography Festival and the Pisa Street Photography Festival. In 2022, she was awarded 3rd place at the Miami Street Photography Festival, and she was a finalist at the Paris Street Photography Festival. Her work was exhibited at the 2024 Brussels Street Photo Festival, at XPOsure 2024 in Sharjah, UAE, at the Eyes on Main Street Festival in 2022, 2023, and 2024 and at the Women Street Photographers exhibition in Hyderabad in 2022, Paris in 2021, and New York City in 2020.
