very informative: i’ll try ur tips! :)

Merciiiiii!!!! Ca nous avait manqué, j’adore Pardon My French, tes videos sont super fraiches et chic intemporel ce noir & blanc…et reflexion super interessante sur la photographie…si même Peter Lindbergh pense que nous sommes tous de potentiels grands photographes avec nos Iphones….tout est dit!!
xoxoxoxo
Ca fait tellement plaisir de retrouver Pardon My French. En plus très bon sujet, et la “morale” de cette vidéo me conforte vraiment dans l’idée que ce n’est pas forcément le fait d’avoir un appareil sophistiqué qui fera de quelqu’un un photographe doué, mais son style et sa technique.
Welcome back in Paris!

Lovely video!
Was nice seeing you at the Dries show

La vidéo est vraiment interessante, c’est génial d’avoir l’avais de professionnels comme ca meme si c’est court. Tu devrais en faire plus sur ce thème . Je suis fan.
Très chouette vidéo. J’aime beaucoup le monsieur du magasin. Soit il pense vraiment ce qu’il dit des photos de sa femme comptable et c’est génial, soit il est très très amoureux mais même dans ce dernier cas c’est motivant, désinhibant et désintimidant pour tout le monde!
Sinon je pense que tu vas me tuer mais tant pis, ça fait trop longtemps que j’ai envie de le dire: tu as vraiment de superbes mollets de coureuse, le petit dessin en coeur renversé des jumeaux je trouve ça TROP BEAU.
Lindbergh says that everybody is a photographer because, after all, it’s all about the way you look at reality, the way you watch it… That is the only point, isn’t it?
New person at the studio is sooooo Scarlett Johansson in Match Point but in brunette!!
Magnifique!!! congrats! inspiring & helpful.. Can you give us the names of the songs??
Yes, everybody is a photographer.
Few a good one.

M.
La photo est vraiment un art à part entière, j’aime énormément voir comment certains photographes arrivent à maîtriser la lumière, et à faire ressortir les émotions d’un modèle ! Et Peter Lindbergh est vraiment un chef dans ce domaine ! ;-)
Des bises !

oh merci..j’attendais le retour du Pardon My French avec impatience. La photo, c’est un sujet très intéressant et qui semble tellement compliqué avec toute la technologie… Entendre Peter Lindbergh dire que tout le monde est photographe est désinhibant et rassurant. Pas besoin d’un matériel très couteux non plus. Je remarque que certaines personnes savent prendre les autres avec leur plus belle expression, alors que chez d’autres, les photos sont toujours moches et au désavantage du sujet… l’amour ( pas uniquement amoureux) est-il un ingrédient essentiel pour prendre de belles photos des personnes?? Je le crois.
Bonjour,
Ca fait super plaisir de te revoir en toute décontraction Garance….et cerise sur le gâteau, ça se passe en pleine Fashion Week. C’est inspirant & appréciable….Si certains pouvaient prendre exemple sur toi ;-).
J’avoue que tout le cinéma créé par les bloggeurs, & streetstylers a un peu dénaturé ou détourné l’attention des podiums. Mais pourquoi sont-ils de plus en plus nombreux? A vous lasser de la FashionWeek
Petit question pour toi Garance, tu utilises quel objectif? un 50mm f1.2?
Tes photos sont vraiment magnifiques
Lovely video!! It’s wonderful to start the morning with Pardon my French!

Content de retrouver PMF
Moi je me trouve très nul en photo! j’ai jamais sur l’image ce que j’ai dans la tête, c’est grave docteur?
PS: Et moi qui ai commencé un article sur les photographes durant la fashion… j’en fais quoi?
Wow, it’ amazing to hear about your tricks :) Love this serie!
Kisses

Chouette ! Je suis tellement fan de tes vidéos…
Wow! Amazing video.
Ca serait cool que tu puisses en faire plus souvent.
Ca me donne vraiment envie de m’inscrire à une asso de photos histoire de partager et de m’améliorer.
Ta vidéo est fraîche, comme toi :) Ca fait plaisir de voir qq’un d’aussi épanouie:!! xoxo
Wow, great movie again. Love it! Love from Holland
Yay! Thank you for fixing my morning after I just had such a rude woman on the phone, aah!
Hhahahahhahhahahahahaaaaaa Pardon my French, I’m in love! Je l’attendais depuis bien trop longtemps! Ça vient tellement bien compléter le blog, ça donne vraiment un plus aux photos et aux textes que j’adore tout autant lire et regarder!! Quelle surprise de te retrouver avec ton chignon après t’avoir vu hier à la sortie du défilé de Dries à Paris!!^^

Garance, kiitos/ merci for this PMF!
Pure love :). I have had a love relationship with pictures ever since I was quite young and got to be the official photographer of the family on a summer vacation in southern France/northern Italy. It was still during the times when digital cameras were pretty much non-existant-
oh the excitement when the pictures arrived!
Sometimes I miss those days because everything is attainable immediately now and it takes away a little bit of the excitement.
Nowadays everybody really is a photographer-though I personally don’t know/care that much about the light- some of the best accidentally perfect photos were taken against the light- a great story was lured in them by breaking that one rule.
nice video thanks!!
Garance a personal question you wore some lovely black flat sparkling ballerina at Dries Van Noten show yesterday in Paris , who are they from? are they from Miu Miu? this season?
PLEASE REPLY TO THIS QUESTION
YOU WORE MY DREAM SHOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you
C’est comme dans Ratatouille “Anyone can cook”. Anyone can be a photographer! Très chouette cette vidéo, et quelle chance d’avoir rencontré Peter Lindbergh!
Mafalda ?
http://www.mafaldadotzero.blogspot.fr
Thank you so much for posting this! I literally sent you an email two days ago asking about this. Now all I’d like to know is the main camera that you use and your lenses. Spill the beans, Garance. I know I’m not the only one who’d love to know!
P.S. I agree with Natacha, the new person at the studio is a dead ringer for Scarlett. Gorgeous!
T es une blogeuse geniale parce que tu sais qui tu es. Tu te connais. J adore ca. T es la seule qui est une vraie inspiration pour moi parce que tu feins rien. Bisous de Prague
Jeeeh, Pardon my French is back!! Superbe again Garance, I was hoping it was coming back during fashion weeks. Merci!!
What a great video, this was so cool for me as I am really getting into photography nowadays. Perfect way to start my morning. Bonjour Garance and Team.
Thank you for this motivating video!!

Beau sujet traité avec beaucoup de décontraction, alors que la question est souvent très très complexe, mes photos seront-elles jolies, la lumière, ……….!!! Un très beau cadeau : Peter Lindbergh et les conseils d’un photographe expert. Merci, j’attends avec impatience la suite.
Quel est le morceau sur la deuxième partie de la vidéo ? merci
super vidéo !! tu as un sourire sublime ! merci de partager tous ceci avec nous !
Vidéo au top du top, comme toujours !
I have missed PMF so much, and I think this is your best yet. Loved that casual intimacy between you and Scott, felt a little voyeuristic watching it.
I think anyone can take photos, but not everyone is a photographer.
I think it has to do with a consistency (in quality and maybe also in style, although experimenting keeps being important of course) and selection (editing and creating a narrative, telling your stories, through the photographs you shot).
Très chouette vidéo (et sujet)!
I always get so happy when watching these videos. Thank you for that !
Love, Isabella
U and your team r so good at this…effortless….Bravo!! i take great pic…i like to flatter my subjects and i edit ones that aren’t….
Merci pour le retour de Pardon my french! xxx
OMG Garance! I am just about to buy my first DSLR camera! Thank you so much for this episode….it is so inspiring!

Quel bonheur cette créativité que tu as, Garance !
Des photos, des vidéos, des dessins, des mots… tout ton optimisme, ta fraicheur, tes sourires, et ta simplicité transparaissent dans ton art
J’ai aimé la poésie de ce #pardonmyfrench , merci !
Nouchka, fidèle lectrice
Finally! I missed Pardon my french!
Loved this Pardon My French! Enjoy Paris!
Nice video. Great day.

Tout ca me donne envie de me mettre à la photo ;-)
Un bon photographe :
– utiliser la lumière (au possible naturelle)
– composer l’image (rythme visuel)
– avoir le bon timing !
– pas / peu de retouche
Super vidéo, bonne leçon de photographie !!
http://lesgnousduchapelier.blogspot.fr
Well done! Informative and fun. :)
Agreablement surprise avec le retour de PMF ! Avec Peter Lindbergh ! Je suis fan des photos (et films) en
black and white.
Hyper ravie de te retrouver un nouvel épisode! Très intéressant!
What a brilliant video – beautifully shot and I loved Scott’s tip about making use of the light!
Enfin le retour de Pardon my French, super cette vidéo, maintenant j’ai envie d’un IPhone…
AAAAAAAAHHHH I’M SO HAPPY!!!!! Looking forward to more Pardon My French!!! Love you Garance!!!
Hooray! Finally she is back with a video! I suppose everybody waited so long for a new one! Really love your videos! So cool and creative! I hope someone will give you a fashion and lifestyle tv show or whatever soon… Hello you producers with the deep pockets full of money….listen to what we really want: a (min.) weekly pardon my french show!
Lovely video! It’s so cool to hear from people about how they view photography, and the influx of iPhone photographers out there. :-)
My husband is always telling me that you can take amazing photos with the worst equipment – you just have to know how to make it work for you. He’s definitely right – I’ve seen some amazing photos coming off of people’s phones lately. It seems that some of us are figuring out how to take good photos with what we have around.
yeeeeeeyyyyyy!!! Finally! I missed so much “Pardon my french” videos! really love them!
love the video !!
what laura said about “#hashtaging” reminds me this funny video of jimmy fallon and justin timberlake.
Here is the link :

Garance, tu es MA-GNI-FI-QUE!
Tout le monde fait des photos et tout le monde photographie, ok. Mais tout le monde n’est pas un photographe. La photographie est tout de même un art, au même titre que la peinture ou la sculpture, alors il ne faut pas trop non plus la démocratiser. Ce n’est pas donné à tout le monde de faire une photo unique, créative et vraiment artistique. J’aurais beau peindre Vénus nue, je ne serais pas “Peintre”. Alors ce n’est parce qu’on fait des photos d’un arbre qu’on est “Photographe”.
Il ne faut pas banaliser la notion de don et de talent. C’est tellement rare.
what a great video! I love Robert’s advice about getting close and how you only need an iPhone! Go iPhone photography!

I’ve missed your videos !!!
Martina
Thank you. I have loved this video! I love photos and the most important thing for me is light, when the sun is there in the very morning (now let’s say before 8 am) and in the afternoon. These are the best moments to take photos. Light is so sweet and gentle and is more kind…
This is extremely adorable and perhaps, everyone is the photographer these days.
Your Friend, Jess
Great video.” I love pardon my french “and this was a real fresh take on fashion week.
Thanks.
i want your new person In The studio to be my bff. can she be my best friend?
on the subject, i think you can only take good pictures of things you know, one way or another. in that aspect, photography is no different from other arts: you can’t write books about things you don’t know, you can’t draw a portrait of a person you haven’t see, observed. There has to be an inner trigger for a good piece of art, i think.
I’ve been missing the series so much! It’s great to see another episode.
As much as I respect Mr. Lindbergh, I tend to think quite the opposite. I like taking pictures, walking around the city and looking for interesting light, frames or faces (my boyfriend is always annoyed by that, he’d rather have a regular walk not a photo-walk with me), but I don’t consider myself a photographer. More often I describe myself as an aspiring photographer or a wannabe photographer.
So what makes a photographer for me? It’s when you know that what you shoot is good. When good frames are no longer accidental. When you can achieve the effect you had in mind. Until then, you’re not photographing, you’re just taking pictures.
Great video. Loved the photography tips and the crazy eye reference was hilarious.

“Pardon my french” yeaaaaaaah! Depuis le temps que je le réclame!!!! (bon j’étais un peu relou? ;p)
Episode super intéressant même si je ne photographie pas souvent, …un gros big up à Peter Lindhberg qui semble tellement humble et simple, mais aussi à Laura super fresh (je vais foncer sur Youtube pour voir ce qu’elle fait :)
Ah oui, est-ce utile que je te dise à quel pount je te trouve rayonnante dans cette vidéo? .°
Merci Garance! Bises!
Belle vidéo !

Garance, I’ve been looking for a white shirt like yours for a long time, can you let me know where you got yours?
xoxo
I love it! You should also try Lumia 1020, amazing features :-)
Great video!

Great video. I am currently living in Taiwan, and here, people take pictures of everything! You can follow their daily life through Instagram. The things Taiwanese people but also Asian people instagram the most is food and themselves with friends making faces. I love how Asian people can make any picture look cute and adorable.
But I have to say that you are one of my favorite photographer as you always take such simple, beautiful pictures that have a fresh feeling.
Yay!! I absolutely love your videos. They are so great! What is the song in the very beginning? (Starts with “where did you go…”)
Oooo super video, I love the mood of it!
I collect people who take photos on my tumblr: http://haloomy.tumblr.com/… they are sooo inspiring for me.
All photographers are welcomed :-)))

m.
Suis-je la seule à trouver que la nouvelle recrue est le sosie de Scarlett Johansson ?!
where did you get the white shirt?
Finally!!! YAY coffee and Pardon My French for breakfast. I miss your videos.
I want more!! This video was so intersting!

Oh how I have been waiting for another Pardon My French! You have just made my crazy homework day a little bit better! xoxo
Thank you!!
My regular camera is getting dusty because I keep using my iPhone. I’d say 90% of the photos I took this summer in Paris were on my iPhone. I even invested in the little lenses that fit right over the camera lens on your iPhone. My friend Wally McNamee was a photographer for Life magazine for years. He always tells me to look for the story in the photo. You and Scott are both very good at this.
Coucou!
Premier commentaire et ce, depuis Moscou :) (ma ville d’adoption depuis 7 ans déjà!)
Je voulais savoir d’où venait cette veste leopard? Je suis complètement fan :)))
Merci d’avance!

I know they’re probably so much work to produce but I do LOVE your “Pardon My French” videos and have really missed them this fashion month so far. Especially loved the subject of today’s episode. Looking forward to the next!
I’ve missed your videos, Garance!!! This one is so informative, and I LOVE that Peter Lindbergh thinks that everyone is a photographer. That makes me so happy, because now with camera phones and Instagram, I think there is such an opportunity for everyone to capture the beauty around them and memorialize it. Which makes an art of one’s entire life.

Oui c’est vraiment juste ce qu’ils disent tous, la belle photo est celle qui embarque celui qui la regarde… oui mais comment on créé une émotion vraie, ils ont pas dit.
Pardon My French love <3
I loved it.
P.S: Spotting Bill Cunningham on the video made my day!!
Cette vidéo est magnifique! J’adore les conseils donnés par les “pros” et c’est tellement relaxant à écouter, j’étais déçue que le vidéo termine si vite!

yéééé, pardon my french m’avait manqué!! superbe vidéo.
Merde! je voulais te voir en action avec ta nouvelle coupe ^^
bon, ça sera pour dans pas très longtemps j’espère!
vraiment chouette théma, on ne peux pas marcher dans la rue sans voir une jeune fille prendre en photo ses copines w son Iphone et même au restau les voisins de table mitraillent leur assiette sur #instagram!!
l’invasion de la photooooo!
Du coup ça fait du bien de finir sur Lindberg et de nous faire partager (aussi mon idole avec Newton…)
Bisettes!
Moi aussi Peter Lindbergh est mon photographe préféré ! Cool de retrouver les Pardon my french :-)

Garance!!!!!!!!!
Que súper divertidos tus videos, me encantan porque tienen tanta personalidad!
Besos!!!!!!!
What is the music you use in the video – love it!
Thank you, a million times thank you, for this fun, interesting, instructive, inspiring video. Each vignette within has merit. You and Scott are very cute together :-). And Laura is very funny. Just what I needed today, something uplifting and upbeat to remind me all is right in the world!
encore encore plus de videos!!
Garance, LOVE your videos. Your fashion weeks look like so much fun! But I’ve been dying to know for the longest time- what camera do you use (sorry if you already said, I forget things quickly)?
Oh my god Garance. This is fantastic, thank you so much!!
wow the exclusivity of art photography is gone (?).. i love love these series!
http://www.azrakunworld.com
Yay, Pardon My French!!!! It’s always so intimate and fresh. Thanks for sharing! :)
Chouette vidéo !

I’m so happy “Pardon my French” is back!!!!!
You look very cute!!!!!
Finally another Pardon my French! Great as always! :)
I don’t have Instagram yet but I know I’ll eventually fall into the obsession!
I think the world is moving from Facebook to Instagram…
¡Besos from Argentina!

Super video Garance, quelle inspiration! Je reste une vraie fan des Pardon My French, super sujet!

garance j’adore tes vidéos mais la musique est un peu forte par rapport au reste.
j’adore te voir et la musique est toujours super bien choisie!!!!
bise
Great one! love all your posts, I am a biiig fan! :D
Now I’m your follower, love this!
Merci, ça m’a beaucoup plu ! !
Garance, cette vidéo est géniale, très fraîche, intéressante et agréable à regarder !
Quel est le nom de la musique à la toute fin (piano) ?
Merci de ta réponse :)
Aaahhh, I loved the video, Garance! You know, I feel like people get crazy about the equipment, but it’s really the shot, the lighting, the proximity, and the creativity that matters when you take a photograph. Votre vidéo m’a vraiment parlé, et elle m’a donné de nouvelle inspiration pour prendre des photos. I think people don’t see themselves as photographers- that you have to have a big camera and experience to call yourself one. But really, n’importe qui puisse être une photographe!
This was really inspiring! I’m spending my Sunday sick on the couch, and I wish I had hours of Pardon My French to watch. Firstly, the point about getting uncomfortably close is great! The best photos are when you feel like you’ve invaded something you maybe shouldn’t have. I can’t wait to try it with my photos this week. Secondly, Scott placing his hand in front to find the light was really helpful. (Mais oui, your relationship is so refreshing. #powercouple #sassy #dreamteam). Lastly, I am looking up Laura’s instagram account the second I post this. I could follow her instead of some of the ‘cute puppies!!!’ accounts…It’s like the in and out rule for clothes. Follow one, unfollow two
I laughed a lot in this Pardon My French. This video is so inspiring.
And i like it there’s no taboos on the medium used to photograph (professional camera versus Insta.)
Lots of love from Beirut, Lebanon
bella bella bella! :D
Simply brilliant! I would love to embed this on my blog. I want all my clients and readers to know about it.
been bored for a while. went searching for some vibes, good or bad, on the ouèbe. found this. graceful personae with sound honey voice fetching good tips from experts. or kinda. made my day. bravo mademoiselle Garance.
This episode is really really nice, when will you make an other one ?
