NEIGHBORHOOD® | TEAM IKUZAWA « Dirt Track Storm » Collection 🏁🏁 . Magic trick : on both sides of the lens… . 1 year ago, Mai Ikuzawa & Sin Takizawa asked me to be the face of their capsule collection, then asked me to shoot it 🤔. Until the last mn they couldn’t chose if i should be the rider or the photographer. « Can you do both ? » asked Mai. & here comes the challenge and the fun. . I can. I started to think of how to do this. Tripod / timer, tripod / remote trigger, camera rigged on car, GoPro, programmed drone… and the help of an assistant. doable✔️ . The night before my flight to LA, my GF Virginie (who’s more realistic) was feeling the sketchyness of this mission and said « you should have someone to back u up as safety » I really wanted to make it all happen by myself, but called my good friend & artist Nevin Pontius as back-up camera operator. . On shoot day, we faced location issues and lost lot of time. I had a shot list ready & knew precisely what shots i wanted. I could direct Nevin to capture the shots one at a time. Sun was getting lower so fast. Tripod & timer out, we took too much time to set the El Camino shots properly & now i had to ride and secure the most important : riding shots. Big up to Nevin, as i know how difficult it is to capture shots the way i would capture them with my own camera gear and just a few directions from me. . Nevin and i are both riders & photographers which helps a lot in approaching riding shots. He knows how i ride and knows how i shoot and gave it all to match my vision. . I came back for sunrise the next day, rigged the camera on the car & asked Mitch to drive in circles, did my best to slide around him while staying in frame 🎯 . Today i am grateful to be part of this special collab with 2 major Japanese brands that i love & respect. & stoked on the result 🏁 . ———————————————————————————— @neighborhood_official @teamikuzawa Rider: Dimitri Coste @motelcoste Photography: Dimitri Coste @dimitricoste assisted by Nevin Pontious @nevin.pontious Special Thanks: Imogen Von Lehtonen @imogenocide , Rob Bush @bushbrosracing , @hillsack Stephane Flores @studiopaps #neighborhood #nbhd #teamikuzawa

BO JOE for JACQUES MARIE MAGE . I am very grateful to contribute in JMM longstanding commitment to celebrating indigenous art & culture, supporting Native artists & communities thru meaningful partnership & philantropy. . It brings me to walk on spiritual lands, meet and spend some very precious time with dedicated & highly skilled Navajo artists. . Every shoot i did for « The Last Frontier » collections felt to me more like spiritual journeys, awakening moments & gratitude feelings. . For this extraordinary collaboration, my work started 2 years ago when i received that call from @steffylizibauwens : « Dim, we were struggling to put our hands on higrades stones, but Bo Joe just got informed that a special turquoise Apache Blue vein got discovered in Nevada » . 2 weeks later i was driving to meet Bo in Tonopah and spend a day at the mine with him. He confessed how special this day was for him. No jewelry artist gets the opportunity to be invited to dig & chose himself the stones straight out of the mountain. . Bo Joe only works with the highest and rarest quality of stones. What he discovered that day, in terms of quality & quantity was litteraly unseen in contemporary turquoise mining ! Just witnessing his joy & enthusiasm was touching & made me understand how much this day meant to him. . Almost 2 years later, i travelled to Sheridan, Wyoming & spent time with him in his workshop to complete the job. I got to see him work on those stones, and hear him telling me the meanings of every symbol, every detail & design. It goes way beyond being just beautiful, every design has a symbolic meaning related to cosmology, and paying tribute to Native traditions, ceremonies, ancestors, earth & his community. . Bo Joe’s dedication to his culture, and craft is emotionnal to see & feel. I left Wyoming with a warm heart, at peace and feeling blessed my job as a photographer gets me to live such deep connections & meet such amazing & rich humans. . A special Thanks to Jerome & Steffy at JMM for making me cross path with such rare souls, witness amazing craftmanship, learn more about the Native culture & somehow help me grow spiritually while doing my own craft ✨🙏🏼

NEIGHBORHOOD / THE TOKYO HUNDREDS 2 🏁🖤🏁 It’s a true honour to be part of this book alongside real legends & to be included in the NHBD creative entourage. As a photographer myself, to be shot by Osamu Nagaham ads even more to it, as this man is a Japanese photography living legend. I can’t wait to be back in Tokyo to visit him and go through his archives. . HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY NEIGHBORHOOD 🖤 Mega thanks to @sin_takizawa @neighborhood_official .

100% x Team Ikuzawa campaign Featuring Hugo Frixtalon. . July 2025. Les 2 Alpes. France. . This was a special & exciting project to me for several reasons: -Bringing together two brands I love (& ride for), two incredibly talented creative minds : Marc Blanchard & Mai Ikuzawa, and be part of the creative process was exciting. -Being able to photograph and watch riding with such grace & style the amazing rider that is Hugo Frixtalon -getting back to shoot mountain biking action photos, i haven’t done that in more than 20 years, i wasn’t too confident & it got challenged when my camera decided to freeze before Hugo’s first run, and had to go with a 10 years old backup camera i had not used for years 😳 -watching Hugo rip hard & fast brought me back so many awesome riding memories, & reminded me how much i love MTB… made me wanna ride again so much 🙌🏼 .
