Year 2010
In summer 2010, whereas I’m looking for a summer job at Cannes, we propose to make photographs of family on the beach. The principle is simple: I take a picture of them, I give them a business card and the clients see the photos at the shop. If they like the photos, they can buy. This what we call photofilming or filming.
So I start my season, it was the first time that had a DSLR camera in the hands. Of course I had a lot to learn: framing, posing, make some basic settings. I spent hours after my work to look at the pictures of other photographers from the shop and ask how they made such good photos. |
So, I went back to take pictures on the beaches of Cannes at the same place where my passion for photography was born. This time the experience was much less conclusive than two years ago. On background of conflict in relation to the right to work, which was gleefully scorned by our employers, some photographers and vendors, including me, decided to leave the team. Tired of working for hours to win a misery, I made the decision this summer to create my own photography business. At least, if I had to work a lot without counting hours, I’ll do it for me, and will be alone to make decisions. |
