Tour de France Photo Backstage


A selection of backstage pictures taken during my 2013 "Tour De France Photo". You can view all my final edited photos of this event at this link (they are not visible in the following report). "Tour De France Photo" is an artistic event happening every year and gathering models, photographers, makeup artists, fashion designers and hair styling artists. I travelled in a big van with the organizer/founder Thomas Ueberschlag across major places and cities in France. It was a nice experience. (Photo report: © 2013 Ben Heine)
