"Photography represents an universal language, as a timeless image carries an emotional message that can be understood by everyone, beyond time and borders. My life as a professional photographer is so rich in human experiences, which in this age of ultra-connection are so many anchor points in the present moment."
Deep in me I have the soul of a child who doesn't want to grow up and follow the dictates of fashion and beauty world. For me, the emotional world is much more interesting to explore, it instills desire, and desire is as pure and instinctive as our reason is troubled and conditioned.
My passion for images began when I was a shy teenager, I found in photography a way of distracting myself by focusing my attention on beauty that surrounded me, animals, landcapes in magical lights, my familly and friends.
Later after studying engineering I realized that photography was more than a passion, it was my vocation.
I began my career as a beauty and fashion photographer in the 20ies and had many collaborations with luxury magazines and brands.
Now I dedicate most of my time to portrait, boudoir and nude photography in Nature, wild world is for me the best location to explore women body langage, my project is to plane exhibitions to support children and Nature as much as I can in the coming years.
Happy International Woman's day !
“One morning, without anyone knowing exactly when or how, March 8 disappeared.
Nobody woke up that day with the weight of a battle to fight.
No one felt that discreet twinge, that reminder that, despite the advances, something was still amiss.
The women got on the metro without a second glance.
They walked down the street, brow high, without calculating the safest route home.
They laughed loudly, without being asked to lower their voices.
In the lecture halls, women studied without wondering if they'd have to work twice as hard to be taken seriously.
In the courts, they spoke and were believed.
In the home, they lived without having to apologize for being tired,
without being asked how they “managed it all”.
They were moving forward. Not as pioneers, not as resistance fighters,
but simply as human beings, with an absolute right to be there.
Little girls grew up wondering why it had once taken a day to remind them that their mothers and grandmothers were equal to men.
They read in history books that some had fought, screamed, been mocked, bullied, silenced.
They found it strange. Like another world.
And then they closed the book,
and went on living.
As if it had always been that way.
In the meantime, we carry on and stick together.
Thanks to you and well done to all of us, a big thank you to Sophie Edmond who welcomed us for this shoot, these beautiful encounters show that feminine strength is impressive and the sacred sense of friendship universal.
