Talents Made in Le Marais : Anne Barot

Bonjour from Le Marais

Anne Barot has started taking pictures in the 90's as she was living in the USA; She was discovering new landscapes and meeting new people, adjusting to a new way of living, and she just wanted to put all this "in a frame"; She first learned photography by herself, with the help of books, friends and professionals. Later on she went on a photography course in Paris, to learn about technical and artistic photography, but also to discover new software and digital photography.

Anne sees herself as an observer; she does not often comment on her pictures, she just shares her favorite ones, leaving room for imagination and interpretation. She likes to walk the streets of Paris and elsewhere to capture people and situations, and that's how she created several albums on different themes on her Facebook page to share them with her friends, and her pictures have then started to travel around the world. Some of her pics have been awarded and she is now invited to participate in new photography contests around the world.

She says that she is in love with Paris and mostly the Marais and the 3rd district where she has moved back a few years ago after living in other countries. She just enjoys walking the streets of her favorite city every day and shooting everything around.

Some of her pics of Paris in her "Paris here and there" album

Anne is also a "street photographer"; she loves observing and shooting people and she says with a smile: "When I have some time to kill, I shoot people"

"Life around us" (to show the beauty of flora and fauna around us, even in Paris)

"Fall Colors" (she tries to catch the wonderful colors in Canada and in Paris)

"Me, My selfies and I": a nod to the trendy selfies!

She also loves to catch the shadows of people passing by (reminding her of the "Allegory of the cave" from Plato, and how we tend to mix up reality with illusions), implying that shadows sometimes offer a different story, and that's how she started her new "Shooting upside-down" album

Now, why not having a photo session with Anne ?
