A PROPOS DE MOI / ABOUT ME
Since 2007 Anne Duhamel was a Tour Operator turned now into a photographer based in Leipzig, Germany. After successfully completing a BTS in Tourism from the Académie de Versailles, she spent 10 years working in Paris for several well-known companies, before moving to Germany and setting up her own travel agency company in 2007 "Historia Travel". A company specialized in customized luxury travel for VIPs and thematic tours for groups, as well as business travel to trade fairs between France and Germany.
In 2015 she expanded her travel business to include artist management and concert organization. Anne then registered her company Historia Travel with the extension "Events" on the SCPP register, as a music producer for the pianist and the Laser harp master artist : Time Composer.
After more than 25 years in the tourism industry, Anne now works as a photographer in Leipzig, Germany. During the pandemic, time stood still. From 2020 to 2022, following the forced cessation of her activities due to the pandemic, Anne trained as a professional inter-company and intercultural mediator and obtained the DAS, Master 1 diploma from the Steinbeiss Academy. She also took advantage of this downtime to focus on photography, and in this unexpected setting, a new passion for photography emerged. Anne had the time to observe, explore and capture the beauty of everything around her, like a filmmaker looking to immortalize the moment.
The iPhone has become an integral part of her creative process to illustrate her travel offers with beautiful photos. But today, thanks to new equipment (iPhone 15 pro Max), her passion is taking on a new, more intense dimension, thanks to a new X5 lens that helps the eye capture special moments and create images rich in contrasts between light and shadow...
Recently, Anne upgraded from the iPhone 15 Pro Max to the Canon R6 Mark II to take all photography to a more professional level. The Canon offers a full-frame sensor, interchangeable lenses, superior low-light performance, and greater control over image quality—features that give me the creative freedom Anne needed to elevate her work.
Today, Anne invites you on a new photographic journey...

Anne Duhamel est une ancienne voyagiste reconvertie au métier de photographe. Titulaire d'un BTS Tourisme de l'Académie de Versailles, elle travaille ensuite 10 ans à Paris pour plusieurs sociétés de renom, avant de s'installer en Allemagne pour créer sa propre entreprise en 2007 Historia Travel. Une agence de voyage sur-mesure spécialisée dans la création de circuits à thèmes pour des associations de renom telles que les Amis du Louvre ou Le souvenir Napoléonien. Une agence également spécialisée dans l'organisation de déplacements d'affaires pour des entreprises françaises ou allemandes aux salons professionnels, Messe en Allemagne et congrès en France. En 2015, Anne étend son activité de voyagiste à la gestion d'artistes et à l'organisation de concerts.

Un pianiste et mélodiste hors pair, de plus un expert d'un instrument musique aussi exceptionnel que rare : Une harpe laser multicolore.
Après plus de 25 ans dans le secteur du tourisme, l'aventure stoppée net avec la fermeture des frontières. Lors de de la pandémie, le temps est resté comme suspendu. Anne décide alors de se former durant ce temps libre à la médiation professionnelle inter-entreprise et inter-culturelle puis obtient le diplôme DAS, Master 1 de l'Académie Steinbeiß.
Dans le même temps lors de cette mise en scène inattendue, elle profite aussi de cette pause pour le dédier à la photographie et se découvre une réelle passion. Anne eu enfin le temps d’observer, d’explorer avec minutie et de capturer la beauté de tout ce qui l'entoure, tel un metteur en scène qui souhaite immortaliser l'instant présent.
L'Iphone est devenu une partie intégrante de son processus créatif commercial initial afin d’illustrer ses offres de voyage avec de belles photos. Équipée de son iPhone 15 pro Max, sa passion prend une nouvelle dimension, plus intense, grâce à un nouvel objectif X5 qui aide son œil à capturer des moments privilégiés et à créer des images riches en contrastes entres ombres et lumières...
Anne s'est récemment équipée d'un appareil photo Canon R6 EOS afin de se professionnaliser davantage. Le Canon offre un capteur plein format, des objectifs interchangeables, une meilleure performance en basse lumière, et un contrôle accru sur la qualité des images, ce qui donne une liberté créative dont Anne avait besoin pour faire évoluer son travail.
