Couple Photoshoot in Nice
A job of a photographer is an interesting one. Unless you work in a studio, you usually work on a location with people you’ve never met. But this is the exciting part for extraverts like me. You meet new people, learn their stories, document their memories.
Recently, I got to work with a wonderful couple, Maxime and Dayana to capture their love. Maxime is from the south of France and Dayana is from the Philippines, they met in Kuwait where Dayana lives right now, and they are currently working on moving her to France so they can start a family. Their story resonated with me, as my husband and I went through the same journey many years ago, so it was an honour to capture it for them.
Photo walk through Nice
Back in October I was hired to make a trip to Nice memorable for a birthday lady from Lithuania. I live not too far from Nice and have seen so many Instagrammable spots in the Old Town and around. This would allow us to stay in the same area and have a lot of variety in our portraits.
We covered the beach, Promenade des Anglais, the Old town and Colline du Chateau in just an hour and a half. Here are the results!
How I used the new Photoshop Beta to save a wedding photo
Back in May I was hired to document a wedding ceremony in Nice. The event was small and intimate, and clearly meant a lot to the couple. It was also fairly short and I was new to the location, so I didn’t have time to pre-research it.
At one of the most crucial moments of the ceremony, when the couple came out of the Nice townhall, I was so focused on capturing the couple that I didn’t notice a huge traffic poll right in front of the groom. When I got home, I was so pleased with how every photo looked, and I went a little bit grey when I saw THE photo with the poll.
Civil ceremony in Nice
I was honoured to document a wedding ceremony in the beautiful Hotel de Ville in Nice. I love capturing emotions but was very nervous about the pressure of a wedding. I trust my gear but you never know if and when it might give up on you, and wedding is such a once in a lifetime event that you won’t be able to reply if the light was not right or if the SD card erased everything just because.
But I’m happy to report that everything went perfectly and I now have a happy couple looking at the memories I helped creating.
La Reserve Plage, a perfect photo spot in Nice
The pearl of Côte d’Azur, Nice is beautiful in every way. Here you have Vieux Nice, Promenade des Anglais, world famous museums and stunning restaurants. There are however spots where the locals go and I wanted to take you there today with my recent photos.
The beach La Reserve is a rocky, relatively quiet beach (compared to the beaches along the Promenade, of course) that is still walking distance to many Nice’s hot spots. The white rocks and the azure backdrop are stunning and are a wonderful area to take photos if you’re looking to make memories whilst visiting French Riviera. Take a look for yourself!
