Planning your photos on the French Riviera

Here you will find local guides written from my own experience photographing the French Riviera. They cover where to propose, from Èze to Cap Ferrat, Villefranche, Cannes and Menton; how to plan a surprise proposal, from choosing the spot to keeping the secret; and where to take photos in Nice at the right time of day. Each guide explains the light, the timing and the practical details, so you can plan your photos or your proposal with confidence.
