Selfies are great but sometimes you want to be part of the picture too. Here’s an opportunity to let a professional photographer capture the moment for you – and of you – in the setting of your choice. So leave your camera behind and let Teresa concentrate on taking the photos of you!

You may prefer a more journalistic type of photo-shoot to illustrate your favourite spot, convey your emotions or describe a family event.

Or maybe you want a portrait study of your precious pet - Teresa can organise this for you, too!

If you are looking more to boost your professional image, rather than your personal moments and memories, then Teresa is also your woman!

Each personalised photoshoot includes 20 high-definition files.

Contact Teresa using the links on this page for pricing and conditions, or to make a booking! Or you can take a look at her Instagram page to find out more about her work.

If you want to try your hand at some photography yourself, Teresa also runs Discovery and Photo Walks throughout the season, on a one-to-one or group basis.

The goal is simple: learn to really see. Technique matters, but without vision, a photo can feel flat. In this half-day discovery session, you’ll practice noticing details, framing shots, and finding visual resonance in the landscape. Almost any weather can offer opportunities - snow, fog, or wind can add subtle effects - but heavy rain will be avoided. Workshop locations will be shared in advance and generally follow easy walking trails.

Groups are small, with two to four participants, keeping the experience personal and focused. Private one-to-one sessions are also available. Monica will be on hand to answer any technical questions as you go.

Based around Chamonix, these workshops give you a chance to slow down, observe your surroundings, and develop your photography in a relaxed, supportive environment. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced photographer, this session will help you see your subjects in new ways and capture images that stand out.

Everyone is a photographer these days… up to a certain point. But when it comes to visually communicating the best aspects of:

• your business
• your rental property
• your restaurant or hotel
• or the right image for selling your own personal image when the selfie isn’t enough

...then it might be worth considering the professional photographer Teresa Kaufman to do the job for you.

Teresa is a well-known photo-journalist who has made a name in the Alpes with her popular Photo Walks. Her book 'Therese et ses deux freres' is soon to become a collector’s item and just about out of stock with almost 3000 copies sold already.

Teresa is now branching out to offer services for small businesses and individuals in the valley concerned about their image such as:

• real-estate property owners looking for more effective rental turnover
• chefs, caterers and restaurants for food photography and atmosphere
• establishments hosting concerts and events
• architectural and building companies looking for follow-through for construction sites
• individual entrepreneurs looking to invent, boost and communicate their own personal image
• small businesses and hotels needing to boost their social networking and product communication, such as for Facebook or Instagram

Alternatively, if it’s portrait photography that you want to boost your image, then Teresa Kaufman is your woman.

Meet up with Teresa so that you can discuss how she may be able to enhance your communication strategy with better visual dynamics. Or you can take a look at her Instagram page to find out more about what she does.

Created and led by author-photographer Teresa Kaufman since 2011, the Discovery Walks propose unique & confidential itineraries for world-travellers and photo & smartphone buffs to observe & capture scenes of the traditional Chamonix nature, scenery and life-style.

A large selection of itineraries - in both summer and winter - will allow you to uncover some of the valleys most beautiful and photogenic locations. On occasion, you will be crossing paths with the locals who also frequent these hidden paths. Originally designed to satisfy the curious photographer, Teresa has now adapted the walks to also satisfy smartphone and video artists as well as people who just want to soak up the atmosphere and better understand the valley in a more personal manner. And to come home with a selection of telling images to share.

Discovery Walk Prices:

• Private tailor-made walks are available all year round, to fit your time and budget
• Choose the itinerary and the time of day that suit you best

Teresa is always finding new ideas and themes for her Walks. For full details check out her website where you'll see that she also offers a Discovery Walk with your Dog & Mini-Photoshoot. Even better, give her a call and she will tell you what is new for this season. 

Duration of the walks: these walks last around 3 hours, depending on the itinerary, but this is flexible and full-day outings can be organised on request.

Useful Info: you'll be walking on small village roads and grassy paths in summer which turn to snowy country paths in the winter. So weather-appropriate shoes with good soles are advisable. If you like using walking poles, feel free to bring them along. In the event of very poor weather a replacement date will be proposed.

Transportation to the rendez-vous point: private car, local train (free with the carte d'hôtes) or by car-pool

Booking: please contact Teresa directly via the links on this page to book your walk
