Somewhere beyond the sea...

So on sunday we woke up at an ungodly hour and left for a shooting on the beaches of Normandy. There were Pierre, Sophie, and the usual team. Plus our model Romane G. It was an incredible clear sunny day with an incredible hurricane-like wind and an incredible 0 degrees temperature. I was wearing cashmere, 2 pairs of socks and a fur coat and I felt very much like an icicle. Romane, next to me, was wearing Cacharel knickers and a Miu Miu mesh top.
Now Romane may be a schoolgirl of 16, but don't get her wrong! She was an incredibly professional model; she never once complained about the cold, she stroke the most amazing poses and looks, managed to walk on rocks whilst wearing those famous Miu Miu satin chunky heels (which I have decided I absolutely adore) and when we got back to Paris 14 hours later she left for another job at ChloƩ. Obviously she had class on monday... People who think models have a brainless, silly, easy job make me laugh so much.
All in all (and despite the fact that I've been coughing ever since sunday) it was a lovely day and we did have loads of fun. I just adore Sophie and Pierre. Here's what the shooting felt like- this is only a silly iPhone picture, but I bet Pierre's final result will be to die for. I will keep you posted!

  10. It sounds like a grueling day, but one that is all worth it in the end =) If this stunning pic was taken by an iphone, I can only imagine how beautiful the photographer's images will be. Hope you can share them with us when they're ready!
