This portrait workshop will focus on the practical, very concrete aspects inherent to any project.

An exciting and creative experience alongside Charlotte Abramow to exchange around the practice of each and then create and carry out a small personal project.

This outstanding course will allow each participant to imagine, share and precisely work on the form that a personal photography exhibition project could take.

For three exceptional half-days, Denis Rouvre will help participants in their reflection and portrait work.

A day to share an discover the point a view and career of a great master of photography.

In this exciting, balanced course, precise work on distance, light, forms, movement and framing during shoots and post-production will counterbalance imagination, exploration and the free interpretation of what surrounds us.

This exciting five-day course will enrich the participants’ experience while introducing them to the view camera.

The quest will gradually become more personal and inward-looking in these repetitive alternations, contrasts and different atmospheres. Participants will be asked to dig deep down within themselves and find a common denominator based on their sensations and feelings in order to connect everyday experiences to one another, working on what characterizes their gaze, accompanying the sensibility that dictates distances, obsessions and detours.

Participants in this five-day workshop will explore areas to offer a unique vision. Accompanied by Bertrand Meunier, they will set out from Arles every day, turning all their attention to the amazing variety of nearby spaces, especially the small towns on the Mediterranean coast and ponds southeast of the city.

A portrait is far more than the mere representation of a person. It is a record of the encounter between photographer and model.The photographer needs to counter the subject's urge to project a 'controlled image' of themselves, by establishing a relationship of trust and getting close.

This full-range course will help participants enrich their gaze, notably by completing a personal project in Arles or nearby that will be exhibited in a group show on the last day.
Jean-Christophe Béchet will advise and guide participants in exploring what makes their gaze unique by having them compare their work.

This workshop aims to help photographers refine their creative language and deepen their personal investment. They will explore their desires, passion, personal and intimate stories, obsessions and discoveries, revealing what is specific to us and what will make their photography relevant, sincere and singular.

This intensive course will be largely based on shooting sessions under the expertise and guidance of Jérôme Bonnet.
The goal will be to skillfully deal with the person photographed and the surrounding space.
Mr. Bonnet will help participants set up the lighting conditions that will create a mood, shape the spaces and emphasize expressions.

Like all photographs, portraits can take many forms and be made using many techniques. The photographer is either totally free or constrained by the uses and limitations he imposes on himself, wittingly or not. Léa Crespi will guide participants through this range of endless possibilities.

Participants in this exceptional course will visit a wide range of places every day to tell a story oscillating between the real and the imaginary.
Their explorations will converge on the Rhône in Arles, the Camargue and nearby villages, where the multifaceted river will be a pretext to experiment with photography.

This workshop aims to help participants create a coherent body of work with the help of Julien Pebrel's wise advice. They will focus on a specific space to make a portrait. Each will choose, depending on his or her wishes, past experiences and a place to explore: a district, a street, a quay, a monument, a stadium, a building, a park, a wasteland... the playground will have very diverse aspects.

This exciting course focuses on practice, a personal search and simple, sincere, open, adapted discussions allowing everybody to find his or her own portrait-making method.
Yann Rabanier will offer three main areas to work on: light, framing and the model’s direction. The first sessions will focus on each one relatively separately, setting out certain preferences, experimenting with new distances and imagining fresh approaches.

This exciting experience with Denis Dailleux will focus on portraiture.

A portrait is considered an interaction, often brief, between a photographer and a model. To be successful, a trusting bond must be simply and swiftly established.

This course will constantly prod participants to go beyond their photography habits as they take steps towards creating a personal series. The work will resolutely focus on others — either one person or a group of individuals. Some participants will draw from the encounters to tell a story or describe a situation, while others will focus on stealthier exchanges, surveying the attitudes, cultural traits and features of a generation, a social group, a place, etc.

This workshop revolves around photography as a means for asserting a personal perception of the world. Looking beyond the purely documentary, images making up a diary or inventory allow their inventor to cut free from the constraints underlying the transcription of objective reality.
