What is a photography proposal ? After the photographs of the marriage proposal and the portraits showing the spontaneous reactions, I ask the couple to redo the request in order to vary the angles of view. Then to create romantic photos, which symbolizes their love, I ask the couple to look into each other's eyes, to hug each other, to kiss, to put their heads together. To give dynamism and joy to my photo shoots I put the couple in motion. I make the couple move by asking them to move, to run, to throw themselves into each other's arms, to jump as high as possible. These stagings aim to create strong interactions, natural and dynamic poses. I take a few photo poses seated, one next to the other. I alternate by placing them in front of each in turn. I ask them to stand aside, to mix their legs. The idea is to create proximity by varying the rendering of your images.
