The photographer's sensitivity : key of the success ?

What if our vulnerability was the key to artistic creation that transcends photography ?

We deliver, show that the "expression" of a look or a subject that emerges from an image is the most exciting aspect. And if photographing people when they think of something else and you are no longer in their minds, you could reveal more complex emotions ?

As far as I can remember, I have always liked to bring a humanist aspect to each of my photographs. Of course street photography helps a lot, capturing different personalities, chasing the moment, and taking pictures of people, can only be beneficial to anyone who is passionate about the man. But any reaction does not attract the eye, and transcends even less its creator.

And this is where the vulnerability of photographic subjects, through the sensitivity of their author, makes sense.

Once the technical training is completed and the material mastered, what remains to the photographer, if not his artist's soul ? Is not it said that to succeed, it is necessary to put heart to the work ?

But how to achieve it ? How to arouse a desire to feel close to the subject, and to reveal oneself ?

Well, I guess it depends on how sensitive everyone is. We face all the trials of life in different ways because we are unique, and that's an important point. Being unique in photography is the best way to stand out. Whether it is a style, a genre, an approach, or a series project never seen before, it is the connection of these steps with your soul and your eye of photographer that will make you happy, will arouse the interest of others, and will make your works of the most interesting.

As the photographer David Duchemin said, a good photographer is one who is able not to represent the objective reality, but to translate the sensations and the emotions felt at the moment of triggering. I think so, and I also think that showing his vulnerability is the reason why photography has become a passion for me, and looking for that same emotion in my subjects is the key. The moment among the moments, where for a split second the magic operates.

A little like in love, where certain things do not order, and sometimes even prove indescribable, they are just there, that's all, and it suits us as it is.

No need words. Love, feel, photograph !
