Portraits

Unhurried sittings at home, in the studio, or somewhere that means something to you. We take our time until the camera stops being the point, and the photographs start to look like you.

Questions.

The things people usually ask before booking.

Yes. Most of my work happens outside Lyon. Travel and stays are quoted at cost, and I plan routes to keep them low.

Next, Pets.

Patient portraits of the animals you live with, at home or on a favourite walk.
