It’s winter break!!! And for the break, I’ve made a little selection of some never-before-seen photos. You’ll get to see some pretty cool stuff I found. It’s never too late for a good photo!!!

I’ve always loved Eva’s style, but lemmie make a confession (with all the holiday parties, it’s high-time for confessions, right?), I’ve always thought Scott took better pictures of her than I do. I dunno, something just clicks for them. He is able to capture so perfectly the originality of her style…

No worries though, when I found this photo, I couldn’t figure out why I never put it up. I love this look! The short hair, the earrings, her feathery top… (This totally makes me want to wear my feathered skirt for the first of the year!) And something about her just gives her that hard-to-place quality that reminds me of a modern day Audrey Hepburn.

And here’s my most recent photo of her – her hair got longer! – that I took during New York Fashion Week in September… And I didn’t publish this one either! Goodness, what am I thinking?!

Pfffff, I’ll go ahead and say it was all Scott’s fault.

LOVE TO YOU ALL AND HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR, WHETHER YOU’RE DANCING TO SEAN PAUL OR IN BED WATCHING YOUR FAVORITE MOVIES (which is totally just as good I’ve discovered after a few too many disappointing new years.) LOOOOOOOOOOVE !!!

Here’s a photo of Elisa I took a super long time ago. Maybe you didn’t recognize her because she didn’t have her short platinum blonde hair yet!

I remember that day so perfectly. I was shooting her for Vogue. It was one of my first commissions for a real magazine and not only was I not super confident in my own abilities in terms of photography, but I also didn’t know Elisa and I thought she was the coolest girl on earth. I was terribly intimidated.

It’s funny when I think about the whole thing. Today, Elisa is one of my dearest friends and I just love her. Now when we shoot together, I shout tyrannical orders at her “Look over there. No, all wrong, not there, THERE!!!” “Wait wait. Don’t move. I’ve gotta put your necklace back in place. It’s all messed up.” “Noooooo quit laughing, are you KIDDING me?!!?” (She has the tendency to laugh all the time.) If I would’ve known, I would have started doing it earlier!!!

But that’s not why I remember that day so vividly. I remember it because it was the day she first told me she was pregnant. Since then, little Lucio has arrived. The start of a friendship and the birth of baby…. It’s all just too cute. I send big hugs to Elisa.

Here’s the last photo I took of her (I don’t even try to fight it anymore : I just let her laugh like crazy).

This has to be one of the first photos I took of Caroline, which happened to be at the time when the wonderful Richard Serra sculpture was still in the Tuileries Gardens, what a joy — and I remember what I asked myself: how can a face express such tranquility? It wasn’t just Caroline’s beauty but her serenity, her outfits that are always perfect but never over the top, the side of her  that says ‘I’m here but I could also be elsewhere living incredible adventures at the other end of the world…

Incredible adventures, like eating french fries with me !! READ MORE

I hope you had a good Christmas and that you gave and received tons of gifts!

 I’ve put together a little selection of photos I’ve never published. You’ll get to see some pretty cool stuff I found. It’s never too late for a good photo!!!

Here’s a photo of Camille Miceli and I might as well just come out and say it: I’m in love with her style. The mix of colors, materials, jewelry that’s just downright insane, she’s totally comfortable with nudity, her creativity, her sense of humor… All of it just gives her the most exceptional personality. And it’s super intimidating for me… That just means that you have no idea how many photo opportunities I’ve missed with her!!!

Since then, we’ve gotten to know each other a little. I’m still pretty darn fascinated by her taste and I’m a little less of a catastrophe when I’m around her…

Here’s a few more shots I took of her. Oh la la, it’s really just never enough. Voilà. Camille, you’re on my list for 2012!

Here’s an image of Chioma, the first time I met her. Still today I remember it well. It was at a fashion show and it was the first time I’d ever seen her. She was so sweet I ended up asking her to pose for my camera for way too long!

It’s vacation time!!! Yep, and I decided that winter break starts today. What’s with these Christmas parties lasting all week long? Ok, so, for the break, I put together a little selection of photos that have never been published. You’ll get to see some pretty cool stuff I found. It’s never too late for a good photo!!!

We’ll start this little series with Dianna and a photo that was taken before she chopped her hair off – I remember when I took this… I had just arrived in New York and Dianna spent an entire afternoon showing me some of her favorite spots. Seriously now, such an angel…

I really have to ask her to do a City Guide for us. What do you think?

———–

Here’s the last picture I published of Dianna…

… And every time I’ve taken her photo since, oh man, I just love her.

So tell me, what would you think if I told you I loved these shoes?

And what if I told you when I saw Liu Wen (so pretty, so stylish, me such a fan) backstage at the Altuzarra show last season, I followed her for 10 minutes just to get a photo of her shoes – and she didn’t even see me, that’s how sneaky I am, even I was half lying on the floor to get a shot of the POLKA DOTS on her shoes (who makes those? Comme Des Garçons, I’m guessing?) (Oops, no, it’s Jeremy Scott, thank you Bechu !)

And what if I told you that seriously, I made Scott embark on a hiking adventure (I’ll tell you all about that later and we’ll have a good laugh) for nothing more than to have the pleasure of buying some cool hiking boots?

I’ll just go ahead and give you the answer: READ MORE
