Welcome to I love Cap d’Antibes, a blog about everything Cap d’Antibes.
An ongoing portrait of Cap d’Antibes’ life in pictures and in words.
I am a professional photographer and have lived in Cap d’Antibes with my partner and daughter since February 2009. Soon after moving here I discovered that there was very little information about the history of the Cap so I decided to try to learn a little bit more about it. Although steeped in history this relatively undocumented history is being rapidly lost.
Many of the original residents who lived here before it became a playground for the rich are in their 80’s. A large number have sadly passed away and many of the families have moved away due to the rising prices. Sadly they have taken their memories and stories with them. Therefore there aren’t that many people left who have lived through the transition of Cap d’Antibes as a playground of horticulture and rose growing to a playground for the rich and famous.
I Love Cap d’Antibes was born out of a desire to research, record and document at least some of this history of the Cap before it disappears forever and also tell the stories of people who live, work or just love coming here today.
Of course being a photographer it’s almost impossible not to constantly take pictures of the beaches, walks, sunrises, sunsets and ever changing views we enjoy here too! So if it’s related to Cap d’Antibes then it’s blog material.
If you love photography, If you love travel or just love real stories then you have come to the right place.
Join me in my journey to find out more about who and what makes Cap d’Antibes so special.
