Settings and locations in Deauville

The Planches boardwalk and the great sandy beaches for seaside portraits full of space, the Belle Époque villas and the harbour for more graphic moods. A few minutes away, Trouville-sur-Mer completes this coastline. I also bring my mobile studio for at-home sessions in the area.

My approach

A documentary eye.

I work in natural light, at your family’s pace — no frozen poses. The elegance of Deauville lends itself particularly well to seaside sessions.
