Photographers work with a model in groups of two.  Photographers  can share the session  and assist to each other or  split their time and work 1:1 .

In case of  interest, there is option to arrange the set with more models together.

Each of the shooting group will have 2 hours session with each model + session with horses ( collective shoot ).  All the locations are from 5min. till 60min. drive from our bungalows. 

About the  locations  Urbex hotel and Les Baux de Provence  we decide according  to photographer´s preference and the weather.
