This is a spot very few photographers use around here, and it's a shame as it is close to the city, easily accessible, and a quick cheat for

Featuring Manon (Asuki) Parts I, II, III, and IV are now available on the blog. This Fifth session with Manon aka Asuki, was from the start a photoshoot made for the blog exclusively. A fine art nude session that wasn't planned, but I am glad it happened. This allowed me to meet a new model and further use my optical snoot. Temporary Studio Part I Temporrary Studio Part II Temporary Studio Part III Temporary Studio Part IV

Featuring Erica D. Part I and Part II are available on YouTube and of course here on the blog. This 3rd session with Erica, ultimately couldn’t have been published on YouTube. There is not enough footage according to my standards, and the images we got may not be suited for YouTube anyway.

Changing my methods, was it a good idea? One of the many reasons I still keep up with the blog. It’s to share this type of session. I decided to completely change my approach for a big part of this photoshoot. I even did the opposite of what I usually do. For the fun, challenge, lesson, and everything that might happen before, during, and after. A few weeks later I finally took the time to review the files, Choose the ones we liked with Clara, and retouch a few for the blog.

Featuring Charlotte Ruet We had this apartment for a couple of days initially for a short dance film. But I had some spare time so I...

Feat. Isabelle Ménard at the Grand Hôtel de l'opéra Since she left the Capitole de Toulouse ballet company, we didn't have a lot of opportunities to meet again. I don't even want to count the years, but it's been a while since our first session. A lot happened since then, and it showed during this session. Something more intimate, no pressure, all the ingredients for a fun session. What I love about Isabelle is that although a few years have passed, it always feels like yeste

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. Clara C. Better late than never! I changed my mind a thousand times before releasing this one and charlotte's Behind the scenes video (on the way). The reason for my struggle was that we tested too many different things during these home sessions, and I thought it would be too confusing just to release them in full. In the end, Maeava's session was released a few days ago without the images made with Freewell's Prism filters. The following content is C

"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 video Feat. Charlie Ruet Something I haven’t mentioned in my previous BTS video for the blog (but added this info in the article), I am using filters for these. Freewell's magnetic VND filters that lets me stack a black pro mist and a Blue streak or a gold streak filter. If you are following me on YouTube then you probably have seen my video where I shared my thoughts about them. Playing with colours and with tube led lights was the perfect opportunity to u

Behind the scenes video Feat. Mira Rosa It took me a while to get used to these tube led lights. IT took me approximatively 2 months to understand them, and to actually find a way to use them in my work. I am not quite there yet, but I am getting close. The shape, the size, the output of these lights can be a challenge at first, espescially when you are used to working with flashes. But they offer new possibilities, that I cannot ignore. So I had to regularly work with them,

Feat. Charlotte R. This summer I did a few private "home" sessions and I rediscovered the joy and pain of setting up a temporary studio inside someone else's home. I have a few tricks to make up for the lack of space, but I recently discovered a new way to hang a back drop. For this sesion, I used 2 suction cups from ifootage, 2 spider crabs (magic arms) and a Manfrotto to hang my backdrop from 2 windows. It held the weight pretty well, so I decided to use this technique ever

Behind the scenes video feat. Clara P. My first photoshoot made entirely with RGB tube led lights, from start to finish! I have been playing with these GODOX TL-120s for a few weeks now and thought I’d share my first images and thoughts on the blog. I’ve used other tube led lights in the past, and most recently the ones from Nanlite . I never did an entire session though as I felt limited and couldn’t create all the images I had in mind. From 2 tubes to 8 for this session, I’

A familiar face! You’ve seen Célina before, and I praised her talents multiple times. She is not a dancer, nor a performer, but as a model she is able to improvise and propose a wide array of emotions, shapes and forms with her body unlike any other models I worked with before.

Feat. Frany Duran This improvised sensual boudoir photoshoot happened during my very short stay in Paris, a few weeks ago. I just decided to open a spot for a quick session and Frany jumped onboard and was game for an unprepared session. We met, discussed briefly about what we can eventually do together. I discovered the outfits on the day and we started shooting right away! The short exchange we had prior to shooting is important. It was my first time working with her, so it

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

My first steps feat. Célina B. This is part IV of my journey exploring Fine art nude Photography. Down below are previeious articles on the subject. Fine art Nude photography (part I) Fine art Nude photography (part II) Fine art Nude photography (part III) 4th and final article and maybe the most interesting one for me as a dance photographer. "Flow posing" or letting the model improvise was never my favorite approach. I started with a lot of improvisation, letting the mode

My first steps feat. Emma H. This is part III of my journey exploring Fine art nude Photography. Fine art Nude photography (part I) Fine art Nude photography (part II) With Emma, we went for something more colorful and straightforward. Photographing her sitting down helped. Standing up without any clothes on is sometimes not easy to handle for models. Having that much of the body exposed is tricky. Although we are placing the lights for contrast and depth there isn't much we
