about
Bonjour tout le monde ! Hi, my name is Penelope, but everyone mostly calls me Pen (comme un stylo). I’m based in Bourg les Valence, FRANCE, but I am also available for work in North America. I’m all about blending creative and hard-nosed business practices – I take the creative part of the creative/business partnership seriously. On top of my varied and creative skills, I’m a relentless and creative problem-solver.

photographer
Between freelancing, her two little ones Nakoa and Milana keep her up on her toes.
They are my fuel and my inspiration and are always at my side.
Portrait and lifestyle photographer, with a special love for natural light and minimalism. My style is editorial and airy. I’m also a passionate artist and yoga enthusiast.
I truly believe that there’s no such thing as a not photogenic person. Portrait photography is an art of discovering a person, observing and finding those features that make them so unique and special.

Fundamentals of art and design
From fine art to modern web design, knowing the fundamentals of art and design will apply to nearly everything you see and create. In every project, creating simple visuals and sketches from scratch is the basics to a great idea.
Monitor
EIZO ColorEdge and second screen for photo editing, designing, and video editing for HDR gamma support, allowing it to reproduce content with a high degree of detail.
COLOR
Color is essential. Color maniacs, (like me,) I know that a calibrated and profiled display as well as a camera and a printer is a critical element in an efficient digital workflow.
Retouching
Wacom Intuos Pro for retouching precise and exceptional control.
Photography
Canon is my preferred camera, paper, and printer for professional images.
resources
