I just figured out that I never featured there this editorial I shot with paul graves last year. one brand + one color + one perfume + one high jewellery item. matching these restraints was quite a crazy work and I must confess that it ended up being one of the most stressful story I get to do. but I am so proud now that this story has been taken as inspiration in quite a few other editorials since.

a very special project we carried on, aimed to redefine the concept of high jewellery display, diverting the traditional bust shape into a blank canvas for graphic patterns enhancing the jewellery design or colliding with it, resetting and adorning the rarest precious stones.

certainly the most exciting and challenging project I have worked on so far. making these seven necklaces available in paris for the shoot, making them travel from new york or london for the day, isn’t the least prowess of the process.
