Charlotte LONGÉPÉ

 

Born a century after Robert William Service, her renowned great-grand-father, she spent her childhood in Paris.

She completed a Master’s degree of Business Administrations at the International University of Monaco and worked in event planning before turning her efforts to writing.

 

She dedicated four years of research to study her ancestor’s legacy, acquiring an acute understanding of his work by traveling through Scotland and the Yukon Territory, in order to bring back to life his adventures into a novel (awarded First Prize by the Academy of Provence, 2016). In the meantime, she has been giving lectures, attending book fairs, writing articles and recording videos.

Her collaboration with Infine Arts, from 2019 to 2021, focused on two editorial projects about Robert W. Service life and poetry:

• A Sourdough's Quest, 2021
• Best Quotes & Inspiring Rhymes, 2020

With Infine Arts she also recorded and published a series of videos episodes about classic photography, following Jacopo into the darkroom and telling about how to develop a b&w  or a color film. Other episodes  tell about the use of the large format in photography, from portrait to landscape.

 

From 2018 to 2021, Charlotte worked with Jacopo to create the “Dream Haven Muse” portfolio. This photographic work aimed to create a set of characters linked to Dream Haven, the historic home of the writer R.W. Service, his books and Charlotte's editorial projects.

Between an author's portrait and a fashion shoot, the series was produced in color and black and white. An illustrated book project had been planned, the project is on standby.
