Discover the contemporary work of Claire Dorie

How to introduce yourself? Suffice to say that I don't like this exercise but I'm starting with the photo. I am therefore an amateur photographer because it is not my job.

I am originally from Paris and live in the Parisian suburbs.

Can I say my age? yes, I am almost 51 years old and I am the mother of a teenager and the mother of a pre-teen with autistic disorders. Besides, if you know Alfie Bowen who is an extraordinary photographer with autism who has published an absolutely stunning photo book breathtaking "THE WILD WORLD". His photos are at your disposal. breathtaking for animal lovers or not :)

I like traveling. They are necessary to learn, grow and remain humble and respectful.

I love art and everything that comes close to it.

I have just graduated as an interior designer and I followed a little additional training in interior architectural photography because I am also passionate about objects, archaeology, architecture, shapes, materials, textures, fabrics, coverings and color. I couldn't live without colors. Besides, my travels have enriched me so much in all these areas :)

I have just created a micro-enterprise dedicated to decoration and photography and I work in parallel to help the elderly in their administrative procedures and I do volunteer work to help people in reintegration.

I have been passionate about photography since my childhood. As a teenager I collected photos from fashion magazines. For me a beautiful photo is like a beautiful painting. I take as much pleasure in this contemplate a painting by a great master than a photo by a great photographer. Both are works of art and I find that photography is no longer worth anything these days. Everyone calls themselves a photographer and it's a shame because it's not enough to take out your equipment and just press a button to take a beautiful photo. It's so much work behind it!

I can stay frozen in front of a photo regardless of the subject if it conveys an emotion.

I have always taken photos at home. instinct. I was often told that I should publish my photos so I did internships to learn starting with film and now digital and I learned the basics Photoshop but it's not at all what I prefer. My photos are taken either with a digital camera or with my old phone because sometimes that's all I have on hand :)

I'm going to post photos that range from a reflection in a puddle to a reflection in a puddle. a landscape through a scene of everyday life or an object

I hope that my photos will please you and that I will have succeeded in creating them. convey to you the emotion I felt while taking the photo :)
