“Any portrait takes place at the confluence of a dream and a reality” – George Perec

All my portraits have one thing in common: the pursuit of a liberation, of the expression of a facet of yourself which is important to you, as well as of your inner strength and beauty. This quest, led jointly with you, is what drives me. It rests on high quality professional work on light, decor, pose (no worries, I’ll guide you!), and post-processing, in a relaxed atmosphere. Beyond the result, I am inviting you to live a gratifying creative experience.

A portrait is also a wonderful present, one of the most personal, precious and durable gifts, often subsequently handed down from generation to generation. You can give a portrait of yourself, or give a portrait session to a very special person.

I make all types of portraits, ranging from the timeless classic to the edgy gritty, and from the corporate to the intimate / “boudoir”.

I systematically include in all my portrait packages a first appointment (over the phone or face to face) to discuss what you would like, and start bouncing ideas, based on your initial thoughts, on my suggestions, but also on a wide variety of inspiration sources I will share with you. We will also cover important practical aspects (e.g., location, clothes, accessories, possibly hair and makeup, etc.) so that on shooting day we can focus on the essential: you.

Because at the end of the day I believe you should be free to use your portraits the way you want, I will give you the original retouched files of your final selection, in high resolution. They will be made available to you on a private, secure web gallery for long-term access and preservation at no extra cost. I will also offer you professional quality prints, without any obligation.

My “portrait” package, €120, includes:

A preparation appointment over the phone.
One hour of photo shooting, in studio, or at your home or the place of your choice*, whichever fits your project best (most of my equipment is transportable).
A first selection of pictures (typically at least 20) on a private secure web gallery where you will be able to make your choice.
Two final portraits (high resolution retouched images), also made available to you online on a private secure web gallery with an easy to remember address.
The possibility to buy additional portraits from the first selection beyond the two included in the package, for €25 / additional portrait (high resolution retouched image).
Preferential prices on professional prints.

My “book” packages, from €260, include:

A face to face preparation meeting, during which I also generally take a few snapshots.
Two 1.5 hour sessions of photo shooting (possibly on the same day), allowing you to change location (e.g., studio / exterior), your clothes, and even your hair and makeup if you wish.
A first selection of pictures (typically at least 50, and often more than 100) on a private secure web gallery where you will be able to make your choice.
Five final high resolution retouched images, also made available to you online on a private secure web gallery with an easy to remember address.
The possibility to buy additional high-resolution retouched image from the initial selection beyond the five included in the package, for €25 / additional portrait.
Preferential prices on professional prints, as well as luxury photo books and portfolios.

I also offer a variety of other possibilities, for instance the “new parents” package: one photo shoot session in the latter stages of pregnancy, and one after birth – €160, “couple”, “fiancés”, “newlywed”, “family”, “cross-generations”, “girlfriends” packages, etc.: for portraits of you together, but also individually if you wish so.

Finally, I am happy to propose fully customized services to meet your specific needs.
