So far: the PSG - Manchester City game on January 22, 2025.
Champions league game, crazy scenario, the ambiance was fire even though there was a lots of rain, and people were dancing in the grandstands at the end of the game 😂❤️💙

what has been the most memorable night at the parc des princes for you in the course of your job?

Excited for this new wave and very happy to be part of it!! Let’s go! ⚽️🔥

I really, really love my job so I don’t have a worst day in mind but I guess my least favorite days are the rainy ones because it’s f*cking cold (as I don’t move a lot when I shoot), and when my favorite club loses the game 😂 but fortunately that didn’t happen a lot this season ❤️💙

Share the worst day at work you’ve had pls

It’s pretty hard since the PSG social media team is locked from the outside and that they hire freelance creators photographer like me (usually just for a season) for half the content of their socials.
What worked for me is the network I have with the influencers that are working for PSG official partners, that’s how I got to work with them

How hard it is it to get a media job at a football club given most roles are more on the "sport" side of things. How did you get your start at PSG?

ahh too bad would've snagged you a pint here if you were visiting

trying to decide if I should go to the match vs Atletico or PSG

we're probably getting stomped in both but liking the odds of at least getting a goal vs Atletico a bit more lol

I wanted to but I need to stay in Paris for a major event on June 25th 😅 but I’ll definitely try to see a game overseas! 🇺🇸

@alexis- thanks for doing this! will you be coming to Seattle to see PSG vs /sounders ?

Very good question, I think that Web2 content is platform-centered (you create but don’t own) and Web3 is ownership-centered (you own and control your content and community). The real magic happens when you use Web2 for reach and Web3 for loyalty and value. You gotta do some homework though, integration needs simplicity, trust, and education.
Favorite match to document was definitely the French classico : PSG vs OM on March 16, 2025

What do you think is the main difference between web2 and web3 content and what have you found when integrating the 2? 
Also what has been your favourite match to document?

Thank you for taking the time to answer  both my questions. Much appreciate your insight. 🤝

The process usually depends on the project you’re commissionned for. Usually, a brief is made with the brand that wants the content, and they take care of everything concerning the pass. When it’s directly with PSG, it’s very easy and they grant you access one day before kickoff. Getting a media pass without having commissioned content to make is pretty impossible, or you’d would have to be an independent journalist with a press card to apply for media pass by yourself (and get through review)

What does the process look like for a freelancer in sports photography? How do you go about getting a media pass? How do you then make a sale of your photos after the event?

Football is the first sport photography I did, I started two years ago (as a professional) by working with influencers to create content for their brand deals (giveaways, lifestyle content about their free experiences…). This is still what I do, and the thing is that I worked with influencers who had deals with the PSG official partners. That’s what led me to work with PSG today, network is everything :)
I work for LVMH and PSG in the same time, when it’s for LVMH it’s more about shooting corporate events.

gm alexis

I see you have LVMH etc on your resume but I’m curious to know what path led you to working with PSG. What sport photography did you do before?

Yip. I think if the crypto UX can be abstracted away it’s such a good way to create deeper relationship with the fans. 

Excited to see which club does it in a cool way first.

Very good question, I think PSG could use crypto to deepen fan engagement: token-gated experiences (like exclusive meet-and-greets), real-time rewards during matches, voting rights on small club decisions, or digital collectibles tied to matchday moments. Crypto can make fans feel like owners, not just spectators, in already a lot of different iterations so why not football? :)

How do you think PSG or other football clubs can incorporate crypto in the matchday or general fan experience?

Very fair. Almost let it slip away tho. Excited to see how this round plays out. Both teams giving it a go 💚

I don’t want to sound like a fortune cookie but I think the slight looseness form the PSG we saw towards the end of the game because the victory was kinda “made” is a negative point I hope we worked on :)

Did /villa expose anything you think arsenal can take advantage of?

I have a personal top 3 pictures that I’ve taken with no specific order (impossible to chose haha) but one of them is football-related. So, my favorite football picure that I’ve taken wasn’t made with PSG but the French national football team. It’s Mbappé striking against Chile (first half) during the March 26, 2024 game in Marseille. 

Favorite one that someone else has taken is the one from my friend Kenny Sika who took a crazy shot of the same team during the Nations League quarter finals against Croatia (March 23, 2025)

What is your favourite photo you have taken?

I think it's Kvara vs. Timber, though it looks awfully one-sided :')

I’m not working closely with Luis Enrique but I’d say that Doué vs. Raya is currently an interesting one to watch 😂😂

What are the most important match ups in today’s game? As in 1v1 battles, like Saka v Nuno Mendes.

I didn’t had to create content with him a lot because he basically left when I arrived. From what I know and saw, he’s a very kind and hard-working human being, funny in the backstages but sometimes missing the easiest shots on the field 😂

I’m not allowed to shoot content for my own personal socials when I’m “on duty”because every content needs to be reviewed by both the official partner I’m commissioned by and the PSG media team. I do shoot some backstage content from time to time, about how I shoot the latest commercial (no player on camera, only the Parc des Princes). It’s coming soon on my Instagram : @alexis.bmt 👀

Being a sports content creator is having always something to look after because I lots and lots of stuff is happening in the sports industry every day. So I would say one have to pick a sport and dedicate their content to it otherwise you would just go mad haha

Are you allowed to show us contents of when players are in the dressing rooms and what’s it like 

What’s it like being a sports content creator

How many photographs do you capture per game? What is the ratio of total images shot to those selected as high-quality keepers?

That's an amazing initiative! 👏👏👏
Our question to Alexis would be:
In his experience, how can web3 projects onboard the next wave of football fans onchain?

Now that crypto ads are becoming more frequent in stadiums and team sponsorships, has he noticed any significant shift in how fans engage with crypto?
