Couple Portraits in the most famous places of Paris - a day of photography in the city of love

A weekend to make couple portraits in all the most popular place of Paris

My very good friend was on the point to get married, and he thought about making nice portraits of him and his fiancée (now his wife!) to print in A2 format and dress during the celebration dinner. I therefore took the TGV to Paris France and we spent a very nice weekend making portrait photography accross Paris and its most famous monuments: Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides, Montparnasse, Notre Dame, Jardin du Luxembourg, … Thanks to the model who were very photogenics!

Hope you enjoy these couple portraits in Paris! All shots were done with Canon EOS 5D MKII, Canon 16-35mm f2.8 L II USM and Canon 24-70mm f2.8 L USM. I’ve also used flash Canon Speedlite 580 EXII, which gives very natural render especially in those conditions. I’ve also made a few black and white edits to give some more depth to it.

One day in Vevey - a city living for photography

The city of Vevey carries a lot of Photo exhibition and also the famous Photo Museum with nice collections in it. Today was finishing the “Images” free exhibition, with pretty famous photographers showing their work from all over the world, including some top famous professional and many award winners, as well as few animations with artists. 

Portrait Session with Canon 5D MKII, Canon 16-35mm 2.8 L USM, Canon 24-70mm 2.8 L USM and Speedlite 580 EXII

The photo portrait session has been a real pleasure, with the camera being ultra responsive and the lenses rendering very sharp result and brilliant colors. The Speedlite 580 EXII strobe flash is actually performing exceptionally well, with very delicate light when needed, giving a very nice lightning condition in this overcast day. It actually re-sync pretty fast and doesn’t have issue when shooting in continuous mode. 

The lenses have been mainly used at f/stop 2.8 most of the time, and this is delivering perfect sharp render. No major distortion, even for the wide angle 16-35mm, which is still giving this amazing wide shot while keeping the color spectrum as close as possible to reality, something I was not able to get with the Sigma 10-20mm

Portraits à Morges - Suisse

Voici 2 portraits hivernaux faits à Morges, en Suisse… l’année dernière! Le soleil de ce mois de Février était forte et reflétait agréablement sur le lac Léman. Les bateaux rendaient bien dans le fond.
