The workshop at work
Images of the trade being practised, not of a workshop tidied for the camera. That is what reassures a customer who does not know you, and what attracts someone you are trying to hire.

Photographer in Attalens
An hour between two appointments is enough. The studio is in the village; we come back as often as needed.
The problem in Attalens is almost never the quality of the work: it is that no showable trace of it survives. A finished site is dismantled, a delivered piece of furniture goes to the customer, a season passes — and all that remains is two blurry phone photos taken between jobs.
That is a shame, because photography is the one argument a tradesperson does not have to explain. A clean before-and-after, a tidy workshop shot, a team portrait that does not look like a passport photo: it is worth more than three paragraphs about know-how.
And since the studio is in the village, the usual constraint disappears. No half-day to book, no travel costs: we come for an hour when the light is good, and come back if it was not the right day.
What you actually get
The job in three visits
Before, during, after. It is the most convincing content there is, and nobody can fake it. It only requires being there three times — which is only a problem if the photographer comes from far away.
Files ready to drop in
Retouching included, horizontal, square and vertical formats, plus a compressed version for the website. You have nothing to crop and nothing to have retouched afterwards.

Why the village photographer
What is at stake here Becoming known beyond the village without losing local customers.
We come back without a discussion
A session sometimes fails: the weather turns, the workshop is a mess, the piece is not finished. From the village, coming back costs nothing — that is what separates a good set from one you put up with.
Short, targeted sessions
A distant agency has to sell a whole day just to cover its costs. Here, an hour on a single subject is possible, and it is often all you need.
The images are yours

Frequently asked questions
How much does a photo session cost in Attalens?
Quoted according to the length of the session and the number of images kept, at the same rate as anywhere else. Since there is no travel to bill, a one-hour session on a single subject stays possible — which is not the case with a photographer coming from Lausanne.
Who owns the photographs?
You receive full, unlimited usage rights for your own communication: website, social media, print, press, advertising. Files are delivered in high resolution and in a web version.
Can you photograph a job site while work is going on?
Yes, and it is the right moment. We work around the site’s safety rules and do not stop the work: images of a live site are worth far more than one staged for the camera. You simply need the client’s agreement before publishing.
Do I need to prepare anything beforehand?
A little, and we send the list in advance: what we want to show, what needs tidying, who should be there. A prepared session produces twice as many usable images as an improvised one, for the same length of time.
