After working as a commercial photographer, Valérie Jardin now dedicates her time and passion to educating others. Since 2012, Valerie has taken her camera all over the world teaching students the art of storytelling in places where the people and streets abound: Paris, New York, Rome, Amsterdam, Melbourne, and San Francisco, just to name a few.
Apart from teaching, Valerie is the author of two ebooks, has written nearly 100 articles for various publications, writes her own blog, and records her own photography podcast called Hit the Streets with Valerie Jardin. She regularly speaks at conferences worldwide, contributes to numerous podcasts, sells fine art prints, and exhibits her work in various galleries. Valerie’s talent as a photographer and skill as a business owner caught the eye of Fujifilm USA and in 2015 she became an official Fujifilm X- Photographer.
"I’ve been taking a few minutes to read one of these Photo Walks
every day. Each time I learn a little more about photography and
Valerie’s approach. Even you are vaguely interested in the street
photography, I encourage you to read this book. You won’t be
sorry."
-- www.streetphotographymagazine.com"This is one of those books
that will remain a book shelf favorite to let your mind wander
[through] the pages spurning your own creativity for whatever
flavor your soul leads you to photograph."
-- www.pix724.blogspot.com"I know I will be coming back to these
pages whenever I feel like I’m not satisfied with my own work, in
order to find explanations of why it is so and inspiration about
the things I must do."
-- Ugo Cei, www.ucphoto.me"This is, I feel, a brilliant staring
point for anyone getting onto the genre and I have no hesitation in
recommending it.In fact, if you only buy one book on the subject,
start with this one and keep it in your bag. Like me, you’ll dip
into it constantly." -- www.craig-bradshaw.com
