What I like to do first is have a genuine conversation with the model, drink a coffee/beer and connect. I try to focus on telling a story. In this case Flore was suffering from a recent break-up, I could almost feel the pain. The first time we met we just talked for a long a time, after the talk I took a few analogues and that’s it. A week or 2 passed and we met up again. This time to do a proper shoot, visualising the feeling of her break up. You can see the sadness, emptiness in her eyes. Take a good look.
