BEAUTIFUL CHALETS, AMAZING VIEWS AND POWDER SKIING……

I’ve had a great couple of weeks. An amazing amount of powder has fallen on Courchevel over the last two weeks. I’ve been here for a few seasons now and I have never seen it look so beautiful!

It has not stopped snowing for seven days so I’ve been lucky to be working inside. As clients put the finishing touches to their renovations I’ve been making their promotional shots and movies. All I need now is for the sun to shine next week so I can get the exteriors photographed while it looks so beautiful. I am also excited about the private shoots I have over Christmas and New Year, It is a ski photographers dream out there at the moment!

St Bon, Courchevel

Two of my favorite chalet shoots this week have been a typical French gite ‘Chalet Belle Vue‘, a cute two bed French property with the most perfect view. In the small village of St Bon,  just below La Praz, Courchevel. The perfect place for a family holiday.

I have to say though the luxurious Private 1850 Chalet L’Arctique was my favorite shoot. A real challenge due to the amount of glass and mirrors but a challenge I really enjoyed. A seriously beautiful property renovated by Halo Design Interiors.

Here are a few of my favorites.

About pollysphotoblog

"Life is about experience and so are my pictures" About Me I graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1999 with an honors degree in Fine Art Photography. My classical photography training at Glasgow School of Art enhanced my love of nature and opened my eyes to the world around us. It is possible to find something beautiful in everything if we look closely enough and my camera allows me to do just that. Since I was a small child and my farther gave me my first Olympus SLR 35 mm camera. I have created both documentary and experimental artworks that sometimes push our understanding of a subject and other times simply record the subject in it’s own beauty. I have had my travel images published and had exhibitions in several galleries and public spaces over the years. I now divide my time between the alps in France and the peak district in the UK.
