Pauline’s marvellous work is always a big hit with Rouleur readers. As an official ASO photographer, Pauline gets up close and personal at the biggest races in the world.


At Paris-Roubaix and Le Tour, Pauline is right in the mix capturing dramatic action. And as a French person, we’ll even give her a pass on the old ‘sunflowers with passing peloton’ chestnut. And Alaphilippe in yellow. C’est naturelle, eh?
