Booking process

  1. You register with the online form, specifying on which days you will be in France
  2. We agree on:
    • The day and time for the tour
    • Your location(s) of choice
    • The place where we will meet and a contact phone number
    • What you need for the tour (tripod or other gear)
  3. We will then meet in a specific place and proceed to the location we agreed upon.

Day or night tour?

Day photo tours will typically span for an afternoon: from 2pm to 6pm for instance.
But this can change depending on the season (can be earlier in Winter for instance)

Night photo tours will start 2 hours before sunset. It will therefore depend on the season. 

Sunset and sunrise time are based on the ones found on the meteo France website. 

Is the tour suitable for novice photographers?

Yes, absolutely. 

We like to make sure you will take back the best photos you can make during our tour. We both like to teach and will be glad to share our knowledge with you. 

What kind of camera do I need?

Preferably a Single Lens Reflex (SLR), but to be honest, any type of camera will do.

We have already made photo tours with people using compact cameras and they made great photos.

Make sure, however:

  • That you know how to use it thouroughly 
  • That it has a tripod screw if you want to make night photography

What do we do if the weather is bad?

If the weather turns to rain or snow, we will agree with you on:

  • finding an adapted itinerary with sheltered areas OR
  • postponing the tour 

Is it possible to rent photo gear from you?

No.

But if you need a tripod, or some other equipment, we will gladly lend it to you for the duration of the tour
