Aurélien FINOT, cdgspotter_

-Aviation photographer- 

My name is Aurélien and I'm 21. I'm in a french engineer school based in Tours ( France ). However, I live in the north of Paris close to Charles de Gaulle Airport ( CDG) where my parents reside.

Since my childhood, airplanes fly over my house and it has been the beginning of my passion.

I always dreamed to fly an Airbus A380 myself, fly all around the word but sometimes you have to wait and be patient and work hard to reach your objectives.

Then, passionate by photography, I decided to start spotting with an old camera in Roissy and create a Instagram account with the name "cdgspotter".

After 1 year I reached 10 000 followers, now I'm at 44 000 and my passion never disappears. It's still a pleasure to wake up at 6 to catch the sunrise or to edit my photos on Lightroom. I met so many great people on Instagram and in real life.

That's why I created this website, to share my passion not only on Instagram and to thank all of you for the support you bring to me during this years.
