With the photo book "Between Us"; he has expressed his very personal declaration of love to our animal relatives. In sensitive color and black-and-white photographs; he showcases his models and provides a magnificent insight into their closeness to humans.

Vincent Lagrange developed his love for photography at an early age in his father's photo studio; where he practically spent his entire childhood. There; he practiced capturing the grace and dignity of his feline companion; Dwiezel; through photography. For this; he employs techniques that are typically used in human portraiture. The results he achieves with this approach are remarkable.

Through an ongoing portrait series called "The Human Animal Project"; he aims to raise awareness about the concerns of animals and uses the proceeds to support animal and species conservation.
