Another simple outdoor Portrait session
But A lot of my work ends up online now more than ever, which had me thinking: isn't this a waste? This entire session was made with Viltrox

Behind the scenes fitness photoshoot (Extended)
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

Street portraits Behind the scenes (Extended)
Featuring Louana Clementoni Our 2nd time working together after that quick studio test shoot we did in the studio a few months ago. We are once again in the streets of Toulouse for a simple traditional portrait session, with one flash. I went flashless for a while, and now I have an AD300 Pro in the bag more often. You've seen some of these streets before, so I will most certainly avoid them for future shoots. And the gear I brought hasn't changed since my last Behind the Sce

Danira Quintanar Portrait session
Complete Behind the scenes I won't share the story twice, so head to the first session we made inside this apartment here: Nansy Damianova portrait session ! Did we apply the same recipe here? Almost! I worked with Nansy and Danira at the same time, so needless to say to save some time I used the same setups for both for almost the entire session. But you would have guessed this by yourself:

Nansy Damianova Portrait session
Complete Behind the scenes I promised the entire Behind-the-scenes video of each session, so here is the first one featuring Nansy Damianova, an Ex-Gymnast now dancer and performer at the Cirque du Soleil. The company was in town for the show OVO, and this time I had the pleasure of seeing the act from backstage. We first discovered the show in 2018 thanks to Alanna Baker who was performing for the Cirque du Soleil. She was kind enough to put me in touch with some of the dan

Temporary home studio part IV
Featuring Sarah Lemzaoui 4th session, all portraits, same gear, and location, I am just mixing up the ingredients at this point... and learning from other sessions. This is common, when I do multiple photoshoots in the same location 2, 3 days in a row. The first 2 are usually the ones where I mess up the most, and the last one or two are the ones where I am more efficient.

Temporary home studio part III
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.

Feat. Nina Portalier 4 out of 5, this is Nina's extended Behind-the-scenes video. I said it in my previous posts, I will only share parts of this in the Youtube version. This is the shortest session I made in this Haussmannian apartment situated in the center of Toulouse. It was my first time working with Nina aspiring French actress, and I hope to be able to meet up with her again this summer for future Film productions. We did improvise a bit, nothing was really prepared be

Less is more...
Urban portraits with Eva Maureille "Less is more", is my motto these days. I constantly needed more on many of my photography projects over the past 3 years. I hit the ceiling not so long ago, realizing that I was unable to only make large-scale projects all the time. But more importantly, I learned recently how much I went overboard so many times. A few past projects could have been developed and materialized with less gear and better preparation. This may sound odd to you i

Behind-the-scenes portrait photoshoot
"home sessions" feat. Charlotte [Extended cut] I wasn’t sure how I wanted to release this one, that’s why it took me so long. You’ve seen bits of it in my review of the PROAIM apple boxes , and first impressions on the Freewell Prism filters . This photo shoot was a revelation for me. Even though working with continuous led lights may in some instances be the best choice, I realized that I was much more comfortable working with flashes for my photography. That is why I still,
