Morgane Housset

"malheureusement il y a des gens qui veulent faire ce métier pour des mauvaises raisons"

we started to talk with Morgane even before she was part of Venin agency. I liked this girl immediately, there was something special about her, then I saw her videos and understood why...

we've met few days ago, it was a sunny but cold morning. "I trust you completely" - she said, when I started asking her to take some weird poses.
she is not a usual kind of girl, her experiences forged a very strong character.
she felt in love with acting very young, but she discovered it by accident, because of love for a boy. her love for a boy didn't last but THE love for acting is inked now. we never know why we choose the painful experiences, but what I'm sure about is that it leads us somewhere else for a reason.

"I don't like the pictures of myself" - she said
"but how can you see yourself on screen then ?" - I asked
"well it's not the same. on screen it's not me but a character I'm playing" - answered Morgane. I never thought about this, but it makes total sense.

She likes dark characters and often play those. more the role is complex more she is attracted to it. it's that love for the dark side that I felt in her videos and that I completely share with her.

Ali B

Ali contacted me few months ago, he needed the pictures for his book.
we've met at the place he choose, the one you can see very often in my pictures. it was a cold afternoon or at least I was cold, Ali was changing his clothes and didn't seemed to mind it whereas I was shivering...
"the cold is only in your head", - he told me. I still don't know how could I live in Siberia for 16 years...

we talked at the same time as I was shooting him, it was even faster then usual. Ali has that amazing capacity to translate in the pictures his emotions in a fraction of a second and has different faces, I saw in him : at least 3 different actors, one family related member and my high-school crush. this is the other thing I don't understand : how could some people have that special something, that is visible only when the camera is pointing at them ? it's like they can take the other shapes, as if they have several beings that live inside of them. and it is not even beauty or charm it's something else, much more deeper ! and of course they are the best gift for my inner eye.
our shooting was very spontaneous I felt like I could experiment more with him, then I usually do. then we grabbed a tea together and talked about everything and nothing, it was so easy.
some meetings are really meant to be and you can feel it, even if we don't understand why at the moment...

few days later I send the pictures to Ali, as always a bit nervous : "will he like it or not ?". and now I have on my answering machine the best return about my work ever ! thank you Ali for your reaction and your words, it's etched in my head !
