Drifting away to being Pampered
Posted by Olivier Lalin -
This is the blog of a French wedding photographer who loves being pampered. You might think that i am getting carried away.
But NOT really, shooting a wedding is very demanding physically and mentally. I give myself 150% and the next day is a day off. What i would call quality time, basically spent away from my computer uploading files and retouching images. I would make sure I take a day off after returning from a wedding and would usually spend the afternoon at a Hamam and might even go to Spa.
So if you happen to be shooting within a 1,000 miles from Paris- I would try to get to " La Grande Mosquee de Paris " the next day. This is the BEST. As to NYC, i've just found this Listing on NYC Spa's from Allure Magazine. Hum, I might want to try something new next week!
And by the way, There is a Spa for Men Only - IT is a French Company -
