Mademoiselle in Paris



I take my polaroid camera everywhere I go and on that day I was lucky to meet Polina Sova (Elite) in the supermarket at the Avenue des Champs-Élysées.
She was so nice with me and we did the polaroid right there between the yogurt and the ice-cream section. But Polina was not buying ice-cream, it was me! My basket was full of junk food and she was shopping bio and healthy. I was a little ashamed, a 10 year old boy alone in supermarket buys less sweets then I do. After she left I decided to buy something healthy too. I returned the brownies to the shelf and took some frozen vegetables and müsli. (I could not get rid of the Haribos, chocolates, Nutella, ice cream, peanuts...)

Mademoiselle in Paris



I love the variety of styles that you can see at the district of Le Marais in Paris.
The 4th arrondissement is also one of my favorite places in Paris to go shopping and to have a drink. (It is also one of the rare areas of Paris open on Sunday!)

Shoes in Paris

Mademoiselle in Paris



I saw a few days ago Helena (IMG) walking at the rue Saint-Honoré and I did this polaroid of her.
She was in hurry and I did not have time to ask the brands of her outfit. I really like how the shoes and the pants make her legs look so long!

I can't wait for the fashion weeks to be back again!

I would like to invite everybody to visit the blog "Shimu's Holiday" and "Hype Ain't Sh*t", both of them did a very nice post about "the singular"

Mademoiselle in Paris



The sun was shining again in Paris and I went for a long walk! I did this polaroid today at the Place Vendôme. The big Bottega Veneta bag and the long trench coat caught my eye.

A few minutes later I met Yacine Diallo (a friend and a great make-up artist) working on an editorial for Conde Nast in the front of the Hotel Ritz.
One of the models had a pink dress with lots of volume and I wanted to do a polaroid of her but I was afraid of asking the photographer! He looked so serious, concentrated and frightening!

Backstage Bernhard Willhelm



This polaroid of the backstage from Bernhard Willhelm S/S 2010 reminds me of the crazy dream I had tonight.
I can't really remember from who the fashion show I dreamed about was and I don't know why I was sitting at the first row. All other seats have been empty, except two, a couple of seats away from me. Anna Wintour was there with her husband waiting for the show to start. It was a very weird menswear collection! A model drove a miniature mustang at the runway and came in our direction. He hit the car against the seats that separated me from Anna Wintour and then he streched his arm with an inflatable baseball bat out of the car window and hit Anna three times in the head! Her hairstyle was all messy! I was speechless and she looked shocked at me.
Anna Wintour complained with the designer (it was a woman!) after the show and I was there just listening...

I'm so tired of my fashion week nightmares! In my dreams I always lose my photography gear, can't go inside the shows or arrive late! Do you have dreams like that too?

Eugenia Sizanyuk



Today I photographed Eugenia Sizanyuk (Karin). We started the shooting at the studio and after that we went to a small bar at Rue d'Enghien. When the sun came out we took the subway until the Place de l'Étoile and we walked up the 284 steps to reach the top of the Arc de Triomphe!
I live in Paris since 2006 and today was the first time I went to the top of the Arc!!!
The view is amazing!!!

He is a huge fan of Karl Lagerfeld and also of the blogger Brian Boy.

You can check the other picture I did of him on page 34-35 of the digital version of Soma.

Shoes in Paris



I saw these heels outside the Louis Vuitton show. What do you think?
Should I do polaroids of shoes more often?

It's a rainy day in Paris and I'm so bored!
