Hello Mathilda,

Not sure where you first purchased your iPhone.

Camera Shutter Sound - If your phone was purchased or made for Japan, Hong Kong or Macau, you cannot silence the camera shutter sound, regardless of where in the world you live.  

If your iPhone was not made for Japan and was purchased from elsewhere then you can turn ON Silent Mode by using the Switch on the Top Left Side of your iPhone.
