New to photography? Want to build your portfolio and practice with a group of photographers and models?

Started in Melbourne in 2019, Build Your Portfolio (BYP) is a community of passionate creatives who wants to learn and grow their photography journey.
Monthly portrait walks are perfect for portfolio building and as an introduction to model photography. 
The level is from beginner and it’s max. 5 photographers per model.
We walk in the streets of Melbourne and stop at stunning spots to take pics of our beautiful models.
The models and the locations change every month!

About me? ​​

I am a passionate French photographer who got to experience both sides of the lens.
Before being a professional photographer, I was living in France and working in Finance. One day, I sold everything and went on a trip to Australia to fully embrace my passion. It was a life changing moment and I’ve never looked back!
I created Build you portfolio to give to creatives in Melbourne the opportunity to start or practice portrait photography with models / dancers / musicians / photographers / videographers / MUA / hair stylists… who want to build their portfolio, having an enjoyable experience and be a part of a community!
