A Shoot of Self Love x Paris

EN Hey you!

I hope you're doing well!

Of course I couldn't stay in a new place without taking self portraits, you know me!

I know I keep saying it, but self portraiture has such a huge impact on the way I interact with my body on a daily basis. Taking time weekly to celebrate it and reconnect with the way I move it and look at it changed drastically how I do it in the rest of my life. So don't hesitate to incorporate Self portraiture in your Self Care routine as well! You de...

Hey you

I hope you're doing well! :)

I just got back from my work trip to Paris and I'm as exhausted as excited! It was such a wonderful time, I love the pictures I took of my clients there, I walked so much, and ate super good vegan food! I even got time to meet up with a friend and go see my passed grandma's flat. The whole trip was so intense but one of my best times since I got back to France! Can't wait to do this again, maybe in another city??

Stay tuned for the self portraits I too...

A Shoot of Self Love - True Love

EN Hey you!

How are you doing lately?

For this week's edition, I wanted to get cheesy and talk about the love of my life: Merle.

When I first got her, it was honestly such a stupid decision. I didn't think much about it and I just wanted to impulsively fix a personal problem by making my life a bit harder, as I loved to do at the time.

But it got much harder than expected and my overwhelmed brain had no idea how to handle this huge new responsibility. Oh gosh I made mi...

A Shoot of Self Love Sunflower

Hey you!

I hope you're doing well and life is treating you well :)

Here are this week's self portraits! Honestly I'm posting these at 1AM in the morning after countless hours of work and I hope you'll like them :)

I'll pend my Sunday showing my city to someone who never came here and I can't wait to be a little city guide!

Have a great day as well!

Talk to you soon,

Here is the new edition of A Shoot of Self Love! I know it's smaller than usual, but a Bitch gotta fail sometimes ;)

Thank y'all for your support and your constant kindness! It blows my mind and truly motivates me daily to know I have such cool people in my life!

Special thanks to Vertige for encouraging me to do it that way :)

How was May?

EN

Hey Babes!

How was your month? Your week? Your day? I hope you've learned things that matter to you, that you treated yourself like the precious gift you are and that you allowed your surroundings to do the same :)

I hope June will be even better, no matter how May was for you!

I'm so thankful that my work gives me the opportunity to connect with wonderful humans like you. Everytime I feel unable to work, I feel super guilty to not post anything, and I start being s...

Shine Like a Diamond

EN Hey you!

First of all, I hope you're doing well and that the shine is bright wherever you are.

Second, here we are at the final self portrait series of the month Yoohooo! I DID IT 

As you already know, I've been feeling pretty weird lately, but at the same time, I've also been the most authentic version of myself ever so far. And I wanted to embrace this paradox in this week's self portraits.

Everday, I unlearn to stick with weird society limits that I don't un...

Hello Sunshine!

I hope you're doing great and you're taking care of the amazing human being you are!

I believe in you. You have a very unique potential, and this world is a better place because of you.

Many people think about you and the way you've made their life brighter, they just don't necessarily tell you everytime. Trust me, no matter where you're in life, you're not a failure, and you've never been. You're doing things that manu humans dream of being able to ...

You're such a great human being!

Hey you!

I hope you're doing great!

I haven't been really active lately, due to a pretty bad mental health, but I'm willing to try my best and throw all my love at you again! 

I hope life is sweet to you and you're feeling good enough to take decisions that make you feel good. Whatever you do, I'm convinced it'll lead you to great opportunities. I believe in you!

Have a great day and talk to you soon,

A Shoot of Self Love - Sensuality NSFW

Hey you!

I hope you're doing well and you're having a great relationship with yourself lately!

Today I am back with a little bonus self portrait series I did the other day. To be completely honest with you, I spent a fair amount of time wondering which pictures of this series I should or should not share. I was scared it was too much for some. Too much skin, too much flaws, too much sensuality.

Sensuality has more often than not been one of ...

Hey you

Just passing by to remind you that you're super cool, you bright up people's day without even knowing it, and you're full of potential. :)

I'm glad you exist!

Have a good day,

A Shoot Of Self Love 6 - 2

Hey you!

First of all, I hope you're doing great and  your weekend is filled with fun!

I'm back with the second part of this month's series "Water x Letting go"

Bubbles are a great way for me to reconnect with my playful side and chill out. When I'm stressed out and I can't take a decision, I just get the closest bubble blower I find (I got a lot of those hanging around), and I blow bubbles until everything clears out.

So next time you're feeling anxious, maybe tr...

A Shoot of Self Love #5 finally came out and I'm so excited to start working on the next edition already! But for this, I need your help to find the next theme... by playing a little game! (you know me, I turn everything into games...)

I would need you to play Fuck Marry Kill with 3 different themes I preselected:

A Shoot Of Self Love #5 - Creativity

Hey you!

First of all, I hope that you're experiencing fun emotions lately.

Today, I'm happy to share with y'all my new edition of A Shoot Of Self Love about Creativity! Working on this subject all month definitely helped me welcome this beautiful tool into my life again, as all my latest Self Portraits can maybe tell. So I wanted to personally thank you for supporting my art and helping me work on projects like this, that really matter to me and are really cool learning opportuni...

Fly me to the nude - Uncensored

Hey you!

First of all, I hope that you're having a good day and the weather is nice where you are :)

Lately, I've been in such a creative mood, I don't really know what's happening. The sun and flowers, probably. But here is one of the self portrait sessions I've done this week.

I didn't plan this one at all but I'm so glad I got to try this. I personally love the result and I can't wait to do it with some clients!

Hope you like them as well!

Exclusive Photoshoot - Chaïma

Hey you!

First of all, I hope you're doing well and this week is treating you well!

Today I wanted to share with y'all one of my latest photoshoots. Chaïma kindly accepted that some of the pictures would be shared on Patreon and I'm over the mood to finally show them to you.

You probably don't know that about me, but I'm obsessed with birthdays. How cool is it that we have a special day to celebrate ourselves, once a year??!

So when Chaïma contacted me to come to my ...

Photoshoot w/ Zoe ( @lafilleauxhortensias )

Hey you!

Today, I wanted to talk a bit about this photoshoot I did with Zoe not long ago.
It was a while I haven't worked for someone who is used with being in front of a camera, so when she contacted me, my imposter syndrome screamed.

But after a few hours of work and seeing how happy we are both with these pictures, I guess everything went well, right?

I'm still amazed of how lucky I am to have a job that makes me meet such wonderful humans on a beautiful way!

Naked on the Internet, unprofessional?

Hey you!

First of all, I hope you are doing great and that this week is treating you well!

Today I wanted to talk about a subject that's been in my life for years: should being naked on the internet be considered unprofessional?

Being naked simply means exposing one's body. We all have one, and while they all are quite unique with their very own particularities, they also are pretty much the same and more supposed to be functional than beautiful. Censoring them more and ...

Hey you! I need your opinion :)

Hey you!

EN I hope you're doing great! Today, I'd like to know what you think! I don't think I've ever mentioned it here, but I like to offer a little something to my clients before they leave the session, so they can remember all the things they've felt during the few hours we shared. 

I usually offer stickers with designs I've made, and I'd like to add a little postcard. But I'm struggling between 2 options: a dark and a bright one.

Can you help me and let me know whi...

I think I downgraded...

Hey you!

First of all, I hope you're doing well!

Today, while I was unsuccessfully looking for a special old file, I found a bunch of pictures I took a few years ago. And I honestly think I downgraded.

I don't know, I like them a lot and I'm kind of fed up with staying comfortable in my comfort zone. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad the pandemic gave me the opportunity to  explore new aspects of my work - on top of the fact that I'm lucky enough that it makes some people fe...

Hey you!

Hey Angel,

I'm just passing by to remind you that you're perfect as you are. You're on a beautiful journey and you deserve to live your life at its fullest, even right now. Every single day is precious and you deserve to enjoy them all.

You deserve to feel like the main character of your own movie. Even if it sounds ridiculous to some other people. Like if too short to waste it on fears. 

I believe in you,

I'm excited for you.

Have a great day,

What Self Portraiture taught me.

Hey you!

First of all, how are you doing? How was your week? How are you holding on? Are you happy? What was the highlight of your day so far?

Today, I wanted to share with you the benefits of self portraitures from my experience and hopefully, it can motivate you to give it a try as well!

A couple years ago, I remember very well hearing the beautiful models I was working with on a photoshoot tell me "why wouldn't you take pictures of yourself?!!" and I laughed nervously, hi...

Lavie Eibel - une petite pause

Hey you!

Here is a little podcast episode for you to relax a bit whenever you need it. It's in French but I hope it can help you :)

Alright, talk to you soon,

Everything about my Photo Background

Hey you!

First of all, I hope you're doing well.

This past year, I got a few questions on my photo background and I figured I would make a post about it. 

Frame
First of all, I highly encourage you to get at least one background frame. They are pretty cheap and It's easy to set it up whenever you need it and it'll make everything easier, no matter what you want your background to look like.

Fabrics
I personally decided to ge...

Improving relationships, one conscious gesture at a time.

Hello you!

I hope you're doing well and that life is kind to you lately. :)

Today I wanted to talk about all kinds of relationships. During this pandemic, we saw most of them take a turn and many people can feel extremely lonely right now, which is completely understandable. I've had my moments as well so I decided to look into little tricks I could apply to my relationships to improve them and... it's working! I feel more loved and loving the more I work on this and I figured I m...

Hey you

Just passing by to remind you that you're your own very special human. Your life is absolutely unique and no one ever lived what you're living. You're allowed to do things your way. You're allowed to do things no one else will understand if it feels right to you. You're allowed to believe in yourself. You're allowed to follow your intuition.

Have a precious day,

You're great.

Talk to you soon,

Flavie.

Feel Better Journey #1

Hey you!

I hope you're doing well and that life isn't too hard on you lately.

The pandemic has been tougher on all of us than we can even imagine and I had to be reminded this the hard way the other day. 

_ Long story short, I embarrassed myself like I couldn't even imagine in front of someone I kind of liked but barely knew. I showed him a side of me that I had no idea existed and had to admit that if I showed it, it meant it very well existed (I'll have to tell yo...
