About the event
Due to a lot of requests I have decided to organise a big event in Europe! In the end of May I organise a 3-day photo event in South of France, set in a private historic stone house just outside of Nice.
The location is intentionally discreet — a characterful Provençal property on the road leading up to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, surrounded by texture, light, and the quiet rhythm of the Mediterranean. Old stone walls, terraces, shaded interiors, and open views create a setting that feels lived-in rather than staged.
It will be a small group of 6 photographers and 3 carefully chosen models. Shared meals, long conversations, and evenings over a glass of wine are as much part of the experience as the photography itself. This is an event away from studios and hotels — closer to a temporary life than an event. Following the spirit of my previous events, this edition remains intimate, collaborative, and experience-led — shaped by place, people, and time rather than production.
We will all stay together at the property. Each photographer will get their own private room. Me and the models also stay there. All drinks and meals are included in as well as the accommodation.
Our first model is the amazing Liza. Her red hair, freckles and flawless body makes her a joy to shoot. She is also a very experienced model and her posing is fantastic! The majority of the photos below was shot at the location for the event in when we were there in October,
The second model is Dorka. We worked together on an event in Netherlands earlier this year. She is great with posing but she is also a very fun and pleasant person which is important on this kind of event.
Last but not least we have the amazing Laure. I also worked with a couple of times before. She is great with posing and she has the perfect mix between sensual and artistic! The only French model on this event!
Location
Here are a few shots of the property. As mentioned earlier all participants will get their own room at the property. The location is just 15 minutes away from the Nice airport and it’s very easy to get an Uber there.
Knowledge and equipment
To participate, no special knowledge or skill level is required; however, you must be able to shoot independently most of the time. While I'll be there to help and provide advice as needed, it's essential for you to operate without continual assistance. When it comes to equipment, you don't need much. I suggest lenses of 50mm, 85mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, or similar. Ideally, your lens should have a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. As we'll be shooting in natural light, it's beneficial to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with a 2.8 aperture.
