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

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.

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

Creative portraits feat. Clara René
Behind the scenes [Extended cut] An inspiring location, flying fabrics, smoke, and a multi-talented model. Business as usual… Perhaps this is why I need to initiate a change in my work as soon as possible. This doesn’t mean this wasn’t fun, and in fact, it was quite the opposite. There were only 3 of us there, with enough time to experiment a bit. Let's take a closer look at these images, how we made them, and why they symbolize the end of an era.
