- By the end of the 19th century, Napoleon Sarony was not only an outstanding portraitist, but a pioneer of celebrity photography and the cultural industry. He produced the most memorable images of personalities such as Oscar Wilde, Tchaïkovski, Sarah Bernard, Verdi or Mark Twain. 125 years later, what would have been the life of Sarony ? Three Seasons of Sarony is a medium-length documentary that dares to compare the life of a 19th century pioneer with that of three present day photographers. The documentary presents Sarony's life in three parts. Summer is when he opens his first photography studio and starts his career in England. His move to New-York City and the rise to fame is summarized by Fall. Finally, Winter is when he battles fatigue and searches for a different role as an artist. We discover his artistic approach, his business acumen and learn about his famous battle for copyright. In parallel, three photographers of today with well established careers as celebrity photographers share their motivations and uncertainties. Chris Buck, Stephanie Diani and Jocelyn Michel discuss heartfelt stories of their beginnings, their balance between art and business and what keeps them motivated. Through the experience of each photographer, the quest for an artistic identity becomes the focal point of the film. Are they photographers, business people, artists ? Does money define them as a commercial photographers, does it take them away from art? How do they define themselves as photographers? The experience of Sarony, and the three present-day photographers are compared. Their transition to photography raised several questions. What were their doubts, their fears and their convictions before taking the step towards an enviable but insecure job? What are the challenges that persist? What is it like to be a creator in the industry of culture? Finally, very much in Sarony's footsteps, what may make a photographer fall to their knees and how to get back up.
