…finally able to share my beginning here in France as a photographer 📸 (May/June), working as a tourist/portrait photographer at two places: Prairies de la Mer with Christophe in Port-Grimaud, and with one of the most professional studios here, Arthur Photo in Sainte-Maxime, which I’m very grateful for 🙏🏻🇫🇷
However, it was all short, but long enough to see that this was totally not my kind of photography style or working style. But I must say… this was one of the hardest things I have ever done as a photographer, and I have so much respect for everyone doing this!
It all seems easy, but oh boy… this was heavy 💩😅 You have to get to know everyone, talk to them, use special techniques to capture these moments, while not forgetting the heat, the wind, being careful with the water, and the long working hours…
But I’ve met people from England, Australia, Turkey, Italy, and of course France. I’m very grateful for taking these first steps towards a beautiful adventure.
👥 I also had another series of pictures with only couples, but unfortunately, they were deleted.
🇫🇷🩵 Every experience teaches us something. This one taught me a lot and became an important step in my journey as a photographer. I’m grateful for every lesson along the way. ✨📸
