About this experience
I offer you to take away memories of the charming Azure Coast in bright photographs. Cozy villages, luxurious hotels, private villas, and star restaurants - I will show you the most photogenic locations of the region. You will feel surrounded by glamour while I tell you about the intrigues and secrets of these places.
What to Expect
- Art Deco and luxury through the centuries
In the early 20th century, Nice was already a place of luxury where rich Europeans, Russians, and Americans came to relax. Going out to see and be seen - that's what people strived for in that era when beach vacations were not yet in fashion. And we will start with the high society places where receptions used to be held. What will you choose: a tea party or a glass of champagne? In any case, we will capture the moments in atmospheric shots.
The most luxurious villa on the coast
The villa on the Cap Ferrat isthmus harmoniously combined the most incompatible: Venetian architecture, Bourbon and Marie Antoinette-style decor elements, exotic gardens in Eastern and Mexican style. You will admire the interiors of this fairytale house, which have hardly changed in 100 years, and take a stroll through the garden, which was supervised by 20 gnomes. I will tell you how the daughter of a famous banker Rothschild and the Belgian king fought for the right to own this piece of land and who became the rightful owner of this paradise corner. If desired, we can visit a port or a Greek-style villa, or arrange a photoshoot on the most beautiful beach where all shades of blue create inspiring landscapes.
A walk at your own pace
I am not a photographer, but I can take pictures for you on your smartphone or invite a professional with a good camera. I will also plan the route according to your wishes. The most photographed hotels where celebrities stayed, a winery linked to Coco Chanel, medieval villages, panoramic views, workshops of impressionists, and blooming fields - I am ready to offer you both popular and less-known locations of the region.
