Thanks Valerie. A nice and helpfull video. Keep going on. I adore your work as a streetphotographer and interviewer. I hope you wil in the future organise a workshop in Amsterdam. Cheers, Robert
Thank you Robert! I was just there on a personal trip in April, I love Amsterdam! Maybe you can take the fast train to Paris for a weekend of street photography in January. One of my favorite times to shoot, Paris is so authentic in the winter.
Hello Valerie, thanks for your reply. Maby i wil consider it. The time of the year is good. I always visted capital-cities in the winter or early spring. Less tourists and very authentic. Last year i spent in march, a whole week in Rome to photographe the beautiful streets and people.
Rome is awesome, I can’t wait to go back there next year. It’s relatively easy to escape the tourists and stay off the beaten path. Registration for the January Paris weekend workshop opened last week. All details on my website http://www.valeriejardinphotography.com
Have a great week!
Yep, one of the most exciting cities of the world. i will check your details on the website. Thanks.
