Anne Garde and travel writer Laure Verniere have coauthored several books and consider themselves "twins" of photography and literature. Together they bring hidden elements of people, places, and architecture into view using photographic techniques and language. They have worked for international magazines, publishing houses, and advertising companies. "The region is like its wine; the more you drink, the more you want!"
