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

Urban portrait photoshoot in Toulouse
Feat. Emma Diloy This is the complete behind-the-scenes video of my portrait photoshoot in Toulouse with Emma.

BTS Portrait photoshoot (Extended)
Feat. Paolina Last but not least, this is Paolina's extended Behind-the-scenes video. You might be here because the Youtube version didn't suffice, or just because you are a Premium member. This was the longest session we made inside this Haussmannian apartment. What was supposed to be a simple portrait session became a little more than that, because of her beautiful costumes. She had to bring them with her once again, and once I saw them I just couldn't resist.

BTS Portrait photoshoot (Extended)
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 & boudoir
"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

Portrait & Boudoir Home session
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

Dramatic lighting for Boudoir photography!
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.
