About Mathilda
Independent Artistic Director & Photographer for 7 years, it was after studies in graphic design, publishing, advertising and more than 15 years of photographic practice that my project saw the light of day.
.................................................. .................................................. ..................................
I have always loved creating images. Beautiful images.
I evolved with this idea of making each person, each company, each thing around me, attractive through its image. I perfected my skills during my studies, learning to use software, learning the rules of composition, learning graphic design, advertising, publishing, learning photo technique and retouching. For me, the objective was clear: I want to create beauty, I want to show you that you are beautiful.
But over time and my experiences, particularly in an advertising agency and a luxury agency, I have noticed that the most beautiful images are those that have meaning. These images that speak to us, that remind us of someone, that remind us of a memory, these images that provoke an emotion in us.
I then learned to ask questions, to be interested, to understand the things around me to bring out their essence. This is where I chose the path of independence, in order to be able to guide you directly and without intermediaries, and thus reveal the best of who you are.
.................................................. .................................................. ..................................
Since the beginning of my activity, I have been able to work for agencies, for individuals, for companies, and have taken photos for more than 200 restaurants. I have good experience in the culinary industry which allows me today to demonstrate expertise in this field: I was also spotted a few months ago by Adobe for whom I am now a contributor.
And so why give lessons?
I love meeting new people, contact, I love helping, transmitting. I started by helping several friends with their cameras and then I said to myself: why not extend this to other individuals? I myself have been supported by several people who allowed me to move forward, progress and be where I am today, so it naturally gives me pleasure to return the favor to those who wish.
Do not hesitate to contact me, I will be delighted to meet your expectations! :)

Hello everyone !
Independent Artistic Director & Photographer for 7 years, I will be delighted to support you during your photographic learning/progress.
My working methodology is based on three principles:
| FUN |
Because I think having fun is the best way to learn. For me it is essential to make sure you have a good time: kindness, encouragement and good humor are essential concepts for rapid progress and the desire to persevere.
| PRACTICAL |
Because we all have memories of that teacher who made us fall asleep in class. It is important to me to prioritize practice as much as possible during course sessions: I believe that by testing it directly for ourselves, we understand better, and therefore, we retain better.
| LISTEN |
Because this notion is essential to be effective. It is only after an exchange with you that I will be able to identify your needs and advise you on the concepts that may be interesting to discuss. The most effective way for you to learn is for us to design a tailor-made course based on your knowledge (or not) and your future plans.
.................................................. .................................................. ..................................
This is a non-exhaustive list of what we can address together. These courses can take place at home or outside, the aim being to photograph situations that will allow you to learn these concepts: portrait, landscape, culinary, tell me what inspires you!
1 — SHOOTING | Discovery Course
You have a nice camera but you don't know how to use it, we can go over the basics:
- The different types of fields and objectives
- Different camera modes

- The rules of composition
2 — SHOOTING | In-depth course
You know the basics but you want to go a little further:

4 — SHOOTING | Culinary Course
You have the basics but you would like to expand your knowledge to take beautiful culinary photos. I suggest you spend some time in a café or restaurant to design pretty scenes. It is also possible to display your dishes at home if you wish. We will see :
- Culinary photography in natural and/or artificial light
- Adapt to the shooting location
- Styling and composition
- Some tips for enhancing a dish
5 — RETOUCH | Getting started with Lightroom and/or Photoshop

- Familiarization with the software and getting started

- Temperature, tint, colors, partial toning and calibration
- How to bring atmosphere to the image
7 — RETOUCHING | Lightroom and/or Photoshop, to go further

Perfect! Matilda est une excellente prof, très à l’écoute et qui a su me concocter un programme en 4 séances très efficace et adapté à mon niveau. J’ai beaucoup appris pendant nos balades photos dans Lyon, et je garde précieusement ses petits schémas très pédagogiques pour m’aider à bien visualiser certains aspects techniques de la photo. Un grand merci Matilda !
- Cours au top avec Laïla qui a été super impliquée et intéressée. Elle avait une demande bien précise à laquelle nous avons pu répondre avec un programme de cours personnalisé, des exercices pratiques pendant et entre chaque cours… S'amuser, se corriger, répondre aux questions. Laïla a bien progressé et bien compris tout ce que nous avons vu ensemble ! C'était un plaisir de l'accompagner sur son parcours photographique :)Mathilda's response :
Perfect! Mathilda est vraiment géniale ! Elle est très à l'écoute des besoins, prend le temps d'expliquer et surtout accompagne son cours d'exercices pratiques ! C'est très interactif, on ne voit pas le temps passer. TOP !
- Le cours s'est parfaitement déroulé avec Anissa ! À l'écoute, motivée et de bonne humeur, c'était un plaisir d'échanger et d'apprendre ensemble les techniques photographiques. Anissa sait ce qu'elle veut et nous pouvons facilement mettre en place des actions pour y arriver rapidement ! :)Mathilda's response :
Perfect! Mathilda est une personne très sympathique. Le 1er cours s'est bien déroulé, Mathilda a su répondre à mes attentes et s'est rendu disponible pour des questions ultérieures. Suite au prochain cours que j'attends avec impatience.
- Le premier cours avec Magali s'est très bien passé, elle est motivée et a envie d'apprendre. La progression sera rapide ! :)Mathilda's response :
Perfect! Mathilda est pédagogue et investie.
- Le premier cours avec Alix s'est passé à merveille. Elle est très impliquée dans son projet et a l'envie de progresser. Elle est curieuse et pose des questions, la progression devrait être rapide ! Elle est également très sympa ce qui permet de passer un très bon moment d'apprentissage ! :)Mathilda's response :

Je connais Mathilda pour avoir travailler avec elle à plusieurs reprises. Elle est fiable et compétente dans son domaine. Mathilda a assez de connaissance et de savoir à mon sens pour commencer à le transmettre ! De plus, elle saura se montrer pédagogue et patiente envers ses futurs élèves ! :)
J'ai rencontré Mathilda il y a 4 ans, dans un contexte professionnelle. Nous avons des spécialités différentes et c'est pour cela que j'admire son travail photographique, notamment culinaire car elle a vraiment un oeil et un savoir-faire indéniable ! le plus de Mathilda, c'est qu'elle est directrice artistique en parallèle. Cela va sans dire qu'elle a cette capacité à sans cesse avoir un regard nouveau sur les choses, à s'adapter en toute situation, à gérer des grosses équipes avec le sourire et surtout. En étant directrice artistique, elle a ainsi une culture de l'image pointue donc c'est enrichissant d'échanger avec une personne qui a des références très variées.
En plus de ça, Mathilda est rayonnante. Donc les heures de cours vont passer très vite avec elle !View more recommendations
