Rémi Elin, a photographer based in Les Sables-d'Olonne, offers seven essential safety tips for capturing dramatic storm photos. He emphasizes the importance of meticulously checking weather forecasts and tide times before venturing out, advising against shooting in "dantesque" conditions or during high tide. Elin sets a personal wind speed limit of 100 km/h, prioritizing personal balance and safety over capturing a shot. He also recommends avoiding wind-catching clothing and, crucially, maintaining a safe distance from the sea and cliffs, utilizing telephoto lenses instead. Elin suggests scouting locations beforehand, noting that barriers can enhance safety, and highlights the Prieuré Saint-Nicolas as a secure spot. Finally, he advises informing loved ones of one's location and protecting photographic equipment from sand and water.
