Glwadys Le Moulnier

I perfectly remember the first time I've met Glwadys. my first thoughts were who is this magnificent wooden creature, she looked like an elf to me. and she also was so energetic and sweet, we started pretty quickly to laugh a lot together. she is such a lovable person.

her blood is mixed : her mother is Guadeloupean and her father is French, and usually the strong gene is the black one (that's what they say) but not with Glwadys she took only the blonde gene ! she is pale with gorgeous blond hair and bright blue eyes. once I saw her with her mother and it's crazy how they are completely different. nature works in a mysterious way.

the day we've met for the shooting I just wanted to catch her amazing hair in the sun but then I saw that she is very fluid and natural in her modeling poses, so I made her do some crazy stuff and I love the result.

Louise Pasteau

here comes few pictures of our first meeting with a beautiful french actress Louise Pasteau. there will be others in Spring...

to get in the park we lied about our age, I felt Louise's eyes staring at me when the guy asked our age... but actually it wasn't a lie because the age is only in the head and at this point many of us are still the teenagers.

Charlie Morgan

I've met Charlie the first time at Kusmi Tea on Champs Elysées, he came to Paris for an audition. it was an amazing day for me for many reasons and I was meeting my friend the talent agent Maëlle and had no idea that there will be someone else with her. he seemed very nice but very shy, I would never thought at this point that we will meet again very soon and became friends.
he invited us to come to London to see him in a play where he had the leading role. so we decided with Maëlle to go to London for 5 days. I'll post later my feelings about London and our trip.

Charlie was very good in his play and he was a perfect guide for us in the city. we had a lot of fun together. at the end of our trip we took only few minutes for a test shoot but it was enough to realize his potential. there is something enigmatic in his face, you think you know him but then you look at the pictures and you see something else, something special. I truly believe that he can go very far in his career, I can feel it and see it in his expressions. maybe through my camera I can capture the man he is going to be... it's very strange and I can't wait to made the real shooting with him, to see what he has behind his green eyes.

Mirabela Vian

we've met with Mirabela one cold December afternoon. she was telling me her life story, I was resuming mine when we arrived at the place I wanted to shoot her. the next second I realized... I forgot something a bit important for the shooting...

I am a control freak kind of person : I almost never forget anything, I'm always on time (except when it's really not my fault), I know where my stuff is (even in a huge mess), I'm not clumsy, I have a good sense of direction, I have a logical kind of mind and in a very little amount of time I can analyze a lot of things others will not notice. and for me it's not a gift but a curse because the awkwardness of other people drives me crazy even though I understand it's not their fault.
I talked a lot about this with my father who is exactly the same (so no need to ask from who I got it) and we agreed that it is a hard thing to live with, because you see all those "faults" in other people behavior and sometimes you just want to kill them. but also the awful thing is that there is a flip side in our "gift" : from time to time we do things that are so crazy and much more worse then just forgetting keys or loosing a sell-phone. for instance my father once forgot to close the house (I mean at all) or me, I didn't turn off the fire of the cooker and went away from home... it's like the punishment for us of being mad on other people !

so that day of the shooting it was my camera that I forgot... in my defense I would say that lately my life is pretty chaotic and I'm doing a lot of things at the same time, but still...
Mirabela was so sweet that she promised she will never tell anyone and didn't looked at me as if I was a complete freak for one second !
so we got back at my place for the camera and started the shooting.
this girl is a dancer and an actress, she is so interesting and kind, her story is as a touching movie, her life is full of passion and she is an amazing dancer. when she was dancing, despite all the people that were passing by, she was somewhere else, it was fascinating to watch.
some people are incredible in their brave way of making the decisions and taking life as it is without making any drama, Mirabela is like that. her projects are inspiring and I think she has a very special destiny to achieve.

Pascaline

here comes another shooting with Pascaline, the sexiest tomboy, not in her style because her closet is full of dresses, but more in her spirit.
she has a timeless beauty, she is particularly smart, she is living in a coolest place with her handsome boyfriend, she is driving a beautiful motorcycle, her dog is well educated, she has a lot of friends, she cooks damn well, her sense of humor is hilarious, she knows exactly what she wants from life and where she is going, you can make several movies or write books from her past and her future projects are amazing.
I would hate her ! instead she became my friend.
she has such a huge heart, she helped me a lot in my life adventures and I know I can totally count on her, she is a source of inspiration on many different levels for me.
I feel that it is a kind of friendship that can last through years no matter if we live in the same country or not...
I am happy to have you in my life, babe
