Quick look at the tools I used to retouch this image You probably have guessed it, this is taken from the session I did with Manon in Gruissan. Down below are some before and after images and you might be surprised by how much work I did on these. It is not a secret I now use AI on most of my images. The time when I spent hours retouching portraits and full body shots manually is over... or almost... I still haven't found the perfect workflow but this is the one that is worki

So here we are. It took me some time, but I finally got my hands on the AD600 Pro II and the X3 remote. I also decided to test the QR P90 an

2 years later we meet again for a completely different session. I didn't plan on doing so many photoshoots outdoors last summer. You are war

Feat. Alizée Juras Have we met before? Hell yes, a fire first session, in my opinion, so I was hoping our paths would cross once again. Just in case you missed it, here it is, you will quickly notice how different this one was compared to the one you are about to see: Temporary home studio part II I've been there before, so the challenge was to do it differently. Only one flash, the GFX100s and the GF80 f1.7. I had the 50mm and a wide angle in the bag, but they didn't move du

Behind the scenes (extended version) I mechanically (not always but often) record a few clips during my photography sessions, especially the impromptu ones, the urban/ street sessions, and smaller projects. I have this tendency, of filming storing, and forgetting the footage, and sometimes I simply erase these videos because I lack space on my drives.  That is a shame because no matter how bad these are I am sure there is some info there for you guys to pick up… Any type of b

Viltrox is doing an excellent job these days, and this 56mm is no exception, especially if you look at its price… But how do they do it? To

Featuring Alizée Juras I did not have enough footage, to make 6 different behind-the-scenes videos for YouTube. I have this rule that I...

Behind-the-scenes video Feat. Ophélie F. Kind of a throwback... I found these files sleeping inside my hard drive and thought I'd make a quick edit and share the footage and final images with you. I only posted a few on Instagram back in 2021, and for unknown reasons didn't post the others. While digging those out I found other sessions that I never shared before, so please tell me in the comments if you want more of these in the future on the blog.

"home sessions" feat. Emma H. Back in my tight space, where I am thankful for not being claustrophobic. The only advantage I have working at home is that I have all my accessories and gear with me… and I can sip a cup of coffee or tea While I am shooting. Other than that, If I do anything outside portraits, things will become tricky, and If I work with more than 2 lights, then the headache is right around the corner. Joined by Emma once again let's find out how we made it wo

Behind-the-scenes [Extended cut] I wanted to make something different with Manon because, the last time we met, we didn’t have much luck with the weather in Strasbourg. This time she traveled to Toulouse, and then we all drove further south to get closer to the sea. I wanted to work without any artificial light as much as possible. I was looking for a look that would be in between my usual dramatic commercial look, and something more realistic. A little bit of improvisation

In 120 seconds (or less...) Will I do this every year? I don't know. As long as it is fun to me, I will continue doing them. Narrowing it...

Bonus footage Feat. Manon Vergé Second bonus video, more footage from this fitness session with Manon. I already shared a few images in my 1st thoughts video on YouTube and a few images in the related blog post. Down below is the complete gallery, the behind the scenes video with a litttle before and afer at the end, to give you an idea of how much went down in the edit.

Behind the scenes photoshoot feat. Anaïs Rodriguez A lot of dance sessions were required for the testing of the GF 20-35mm f/4 R WR lens and the reason for that is simple: this project was commissioned by Fujifilm. I assure you, I still shared my honest opinion in the original testimonial video. I love this lens and it will most certainly find its way back into my kit soon. Original Testimonial video:

Behind the scenes video feat. Michele J. If you are following this blog, you probably already know michele. We did a fun first shoot together inside a carpentry a few weeks back.. A totally different vibe and theme, if you missed the behind the scenes video on YouTube, you have everything rught here on the blog: A creative fitness photoshoot bts ! The truth is, that session at the carpentry was our 2nd shoot together and this one was our first. We did a boudoir, lingerie se
