Clara Eon : part II

Clara Eon : part I

we've met with sweet Clara about a year ago. back then she just arrived in Paris from the South of France and was seriously starting her acting career. we had a great time together walking through the park, talking and taking pictures. despite her youth and innocence she is a very mature and committed girl, easy to work with and pleasant to be around. the funny thing about her is that she has many different faces that changing depending on the way she moves, I saw famous models or actresses or even my friends in her one unique face !

Jeanne Dandoy

we've met with Jeanne last year in the middle of the summer. from the first few shots I was impressed with her interesting way of moving, her melancholic smile and her obvious pin-up charm, and even though she looked a bit nervous in front of the camera each shot was good.
"my father was a photographer", she tells me "and used to make pictures of me all the time, but I actually didn't liked it, I had the feeling that he was never really satisfied with me". 

I don't know why but for me it's more fascinating to shoot someone who doesn't like camera than someone who feels very secure about it. it has always been this way, I think I love challenges and the fact that people can trust me and show their true emotions even if they have some sort of apprehension at the beginning.
few minutes later Jeanne opened up to me and we had such a great time together !

Audrey Giacomini

we've met with Audrey in the morning of the 1st December, the same evening I was leaving for Thailand. I was a mess : I had thousand things to do before my flight, was tired as hell and had an awful headache. in days like that I'm always worried that my mood will appear in my pictures or that I will not be able to shoot. but with a professional model and actress like Audrey it was easy, every shot was good, and I didn't even lead her at all. her roots are very unusual she is part Vietnamese and part corsican, what makes her look very exotic and interesting to shoot. she is also a very interesting girl with a lot of different stories to tell, she shared with me some of it.
Audrey started her career very early as a child model and already turned in many movies. she even played a part in one of the movies that I like very much - Mr Nobody.
here comes our first shooting together under a grey Parisian sky...
