In our new inside video, we invite you on an adventure to the heart of Metz-Handball as we go behind the scenes of a memorable photo shoot with the team. Discover the set-up, unexpected moments, equipment management and creative adaptation that made this shoot a success 🔥

“What would a photo shoot be without problems?” As Loïc says, the unexpected is an integral part of a photo shoot. And even if good preparation allows you to rule out quite a few, you have to remain ready to bounce back, to know how to adapt! The athletes, the staff, everyone’s waiting on you but the shutter doesn’t go off, and you don’t know why… you’ll find out how we did it, not without a sweat. 

An interesting part of this shoot is the staging for the photos of the official Metz Handball boutique, you’ll see how we used different spaces to showcase the team’s various outfits and accessories, an opportunity to try out some new shots.
