La photographe -- Holly à Paris


When in Paris, you have to go to extremes to get just the right shot...

I do not think that wearing red will help with the "stealth" shots.

Hmmmm I suspect you're right! A little subtlety needed here, I think!
Fun capture though and definitely colorful!

This photograph has a very vintage feel.

Great capture! :-)

I empathize with the photographer: it gets pretty tired wearing black all the time. Black is good to avoid reflections and the dirt from kneeling down does not show immediately - if you are lucky! It does get tired, though, and I can imagine that this lady woke up in the morning and said, "I want red today!".

Happy New Year and many great pictures, whatever your outfit! xxx

Aw, come on! I want to wear red. (I also want a new camera...)

Not stealthy but definitely chic! Love this photo! And I immediately thought you should wear the spotted jacket from yesterday's post! Back to work bisous ...

Always to stay elegant, whatever the situation is! :o)

Nor will kneeling down like this. But I am jealous...if I got down like that, it would be really hard to get up again.

i can tell you one thing...if that were me taking that shot, I would have to have someone helping me get back up on my feet! LOL

About 9 months ago I would have joined Holly on the floor for a shot. Now I"m just a kneeler! I'm getting in the Garnier this time come hell or high water. Holly will help me i"m sure!

I think this would be true wherever you want to get "just the right shot..."

Oh là là, how daring to wear red in the city of blue-grey-black!
