True Colors
As promised, after a winter black and white session lacking the uplift effect we all need at this time of year, here come the colorful spring spirit! I had never tried tone on tone colour shoot before and wanted to give it a shot… Lighting was a bit overkill but my intention was to get […]
Dim Light
Playing with lights is the photographer’s prerogative and the ultimate chalenge is to reduce it to almost nothing. What do we get when only scattered photons make their way to our model features? I tried to find out by isolating any parasite lights and using a partially covered soft box behind my model. Here are […]
On the beach
Despite being spent on the most meridional coast of continental Europe, winter solstice is not synonym of packed up beaches. If you chose to wake up early, you can even enjoy these sand pits bordering the Mediterranean sea without one soul to cross the path with. As the Sun rise slowly, the winter tourists get […]

Paris with Love
I visited Paris several times when younger and never really cared about landmarks. I was then more focused on shopping movie theaters or visiting museums. The challenge was to spend one full day and cover as much ground as possible. I started Place de la Nation but it was more of a work site than a […]
Dark around the Stars

One can still be very interested or even passionate about the big universe surrounding us […]
