4 tests in studio ( post for my birthday 1)

   Yesterday was my birthday (sorry to tell my life story on this thread, but we are in private so....), so to celebrate I'm going to Italy with my girlfriend and Muse Trixie. So we will create lots of images in different and inspiring settings.

      So there will be no post for a week.

     And to apologize for all this, I offer you 2 great posts.

the temptations with flo

I had already spoken to you about this transition between the box of the rats and the reflections of the disorder.

      Here a session with Florence, with whom I worked a lot at the time.

     For her, we can speak of amazing sensual photogenics. because in real life, one could not suspect what she could render in image.

      So much so that when I invited her to the openings of the exhibi...

test with sarah

   As you seem to enjoy agency testing, . Here is an old test with Sarah, who had just joined a large Parisian agency.

      I didn't understand at the time, why both the agencies were happy with my tests, of which they always used an image as the composite, and yet they sent few girls.

       It was a very nice branch manager who explained the problem to me.

the hippie girl ( last part )

Here is the last part of this session, in the tablecloth of my garden.

I realized, while doing the editing, that there were probably reminiscences of David Hamilton (don't worry, Smokea is of legal age), who was the photographic star of my adolescence. and whose posters (oh unconscious time), decorated the walls, without any embarrassment of my parents' living room....

                   ...

hippie girl ( first part )

As I warned you, this girl was very disturbing for me, and so I let myself be jostled by this little tornado.

    By the way I used my 3 lenses; so 3 different focal lengths (28, 50.85), to try to make this confusing atmosphere as much as possible.....

                                 --------------...

the hippie girl ( preview )

I haven't had much time to shoot lately (I'll explain at the weekend), but I've wanted to work with her for a while, and we managed to settle in for a first evening session.

     I had no idea what to expect, because his profile was very strange on insta, so difficult to get an idea.

      So it exceeded all my expectations. a completely natural girl, and completely lunar. I told myself that it would be difficult to impose thi...

Test with uelyca

    I fall back on the series of tests I had done, when I had my studio with a small sunny terrace, and especially this concrete wall with natural light in the stairwell.

    Which allowed me to use fairly slow exposures, with therefore a slight blurring of movement.   

                           &n...

Ness in deep forest ( last part )

   As announced, the continuation of the series with Ness in my pretty virgin forest.

a moment full of grace and sensuality.

                           ----------------------------------

Comme annoncé, la suite de la série avec Ness dans ma jolie forêt vierge.

Un moment tout en grâce et en sensualité.

deep forest with ness ( 1rst part )

It took me a little while to resume the series with Ness (whose image you had already seen), because I have been very busy.

So here is the first part.

Ness has of course another profession on the side, and she only started posing later (2 years ago), yet her ability to create incredible poses and to catch the light, are worthy of the most models seasoned.

It's no surprise, then, that she's one of the hottest models at the moment for workshops.

Maybe I'll have to think ...

Aurelie is walking around my studio

   So here is the second part of the shoot around my studio with Aurelie.

Where she reveals herself a little more in her outfit as in her personality. And this is felt in the more generous expression of his gaze.

                               -------------------------

Voici donc la seconde partie...

First test with Vicky

a quick little agency test with model Vicky.

We still enjoy the outdoors a little. With this time (which is rare for me), direct sunlight.

first test with Aurelie

   Meeting, last week, with Aurelie who had contacted me recently to take pictures.

She had warned me that she had never done a nude. And didn't know if she would feel like doing it.

So we did a little soft test next to the studio. To put her at ease.

Here is the first part that I just edited. The rest a little more discovered by the end of the week.....

                 ...

deep forest with alina ( 2nd part )

 As promised, here is the 2nd part of the session with Alina.

    Where I followed her natural grace and sensuality by following her through the foliage.

Perhaps one of the most beautiful sessions of the series.

2 saleswomen in a locker room

Yes, I agree it's a strange title. but so is the context.

      I was shopping for a shoot with my girlfriend in a big Parisian brand, when I noticed one of the saleswomen (the one with the red hair). I was talking to my partner about it, telling her that it would be perfect for the locker room series. So we went together to talk to him about it (much easier to be accompanied by a pretty woman).

      She was i...

Charly on my floor

    I had posted this picture on the old erotic level. But as I recently restarted this level, to present it better, I don't remember if I reposted it.

Anyway, here it is.

it is an image that dates from the time of the first boys. I had let the model follow through with her gesture. I think that at that time, she had finally forgotten my presence. And so I did everything so that she continues to forget me.....

the temptations of Antoine (archives)

     I think I have already put some photos of this series that I started (unfortunately never finished), when I use to work in mamya RZ67 (analog). The best camera I've ever had. but unfortunately very heavy.

         At the time, I was fascinated by Dali's painting and the story of Saint Anthony.

      I wanted to imagine the scenes of th...

once upon a time in spain

It was at least 15 years ago (almost my debut)

At the time I was traveling with my fiancée in Spain, with a 6x6 film camera around. Certainly not a rolleiflex, I couldn't afford it). I believe it was a 635 yashica, if I remember correctly.

dark kinbaku session

After organizing several fashion sessions around the art of Shibari, I ended up meeting a lot of people in this environment.

And as they liked the place a lot, we organized several private sessions around this theme.

     I took the opportunity to sometimes (if the model allowed me of course) some images of these sessions.

      What has always fascinated me in these moments is the ability of the models to abandon themse...

my exhibition prints for sale

I told you about it at the beginning of July.

As I move, I intend to resell all my exhibition prints, on the one hand not to keep them in my archives (which is useless), and to try to help me in the repair of the roof of the new workshop. .

    I present to you here, to you patrons, first of all the prints in my possession.

     Already for the dimensions you will notice that there is a ruler at the bottom of 80 cm. Which g...

lina under the leaves ( first part )

I had already given you an image of the upcoming series, which I will post in 2 parts. 

So here is the first part, the sweetest, while lina warms up.....

Nausicaa in the garden ( last part )

   And here is the last part of the shoot with Nausicaa.

     As I told you, after the dungarees test, we simply went into the garden. an old table, a straw chair, and I let her do the rest.

      Surely one of my best outdoor shoots this year.

                        --------------------...

Nausica outside ( 2nd part )

   Here is the selection on the 2nd part of the shoot with the amazing Nausicaa.

     For this 2nd part I took her where the rails are covered with vegetation and where there is an abandoned caravan. Convenient for the model's imagination and the photographer's creativity.

       I used in styling with her my gray overalls, which I often use to test the ease of the model in the nudity. let me explain.

Nausicaa first part : grey lines

As announced in my last post, here is the first part of the session with Nausicaa.

     To start well, as I didn't know how easy it was to pose, I started with a basic exercise in a light that I know well. That of the docks in front of my studio.

     an easy to manage light, which makes it easy to evolve with the model.

     And the outfit that always works (at least for me), and that the model likes...

around my studio with nausica ( preview

Small starting selection from yesterday afternoon's very fresh shoot.

one of the few sessions done around my studio in paris this year, because as i already said, i'm mainly in normandy now.

      But it's been a while since we had to shoot together with this Italian model who was passing through Paris.

      Session which took place in 3 atmospheres as you can see (one on the concrete platform, one on the disused r...

1rst test of Caroline

If you know my work, you have probably already seen this model, among others in a series that made the cover of "Lions Magazine".

       I'll probably post you the complete series of lions in the month.

     She had just arrived in Paris (from Argentina) in a large agency which asked me to give her a test.

        A great discovery, with whom I collaborated several times, and ...

Mdl Lola under the green leaves. last part

As promised here is the last part of the superb "deep forest" session with the always amazing Lola.

     She had been kind enough to leave me a slot during her stay in France. Among the big names in photography. I was once again flattered.

        I'm giving you the initials, just for fun. See if that means anything to you:

   D.B.; S.R.; J.T.

May walked around y studio

She had contacted me to do a book (she had just joined an agency in France), but was already familiar with my nude work.

         So we decided to try a first collaboration, of which here is the result.

        She was very comfortable with the nude, as she had practiced naturism for a long time. Almost too much, because suddenly there was no stake. It gave him almost a certain nonchalance that di...

cuba libre

As announced last week, here is the last part of the first shoot in Normandy with Trixie, in front of my new studio.

       This wall is in fact the wall of the factory which is just opposite. a cork factory created in 1962 and which has remained in its own juice. Hence this wall gives it a Cuban vibe.

       When we took these images it was 4 p.m., and therefore full sun. To get that di...

lola in deep forest ( 2nd part on the table)

        As promised the rest of the series with the sulphurous Belgian Mdl Lola who literally ignited the table of my office.

A moist atmosphere that fits perfectly with the series I think. not you?

There is still a small part left with a leather panty harness that should come before the end of the week.

                      &...

preview new shootings

    As I said in my last post, I had the opportunity to organize 2 new shoots, with models that I love, and who already appear in the latest book "Free at last".

       Of course, I didn't have time to retouch everything because there are a lot of images to select, so these 2 models produce quality poses.

      but while waiting for the final selection, here is already an image of each that marked...
