mindful photo lab
London
At the Mindful Photo Lab we use photography to improve well-being in a playful
way. We create bespoke workshops to bring people together.Mindful Photo Lab was
created by French-Ethiopian photographer Pierre Bureau to offer you the
opportunity to celebrate your creativity and improve your wellness. Before
falling in love with photography, Pierre worked in an ancient manor in Cornwall
as a hotel manager. During the winter he would travel to India, learning
meditation, drinking chai in clay pots, and listening to Bollywood classics.
During one of his trips, he suffered from severe mental health problems. A a
consequence, he bought a camera to entice himself out of his room where he felt
trapped. Taking photographs became a way to escape from his condition and has
lead him on a path of mindfulness, allowing him to reconnect with reality and
stay in the present moment.
