We were in Boston at the MFA in April and I saw a painting Springtime (aka Madeleine in the Bois d’Amour) portrait (1892) by Émile Bernard. Something about the composition resonated with me about two people in a woods, with an ambiguous narrative. I started imagining a series of images in a woods that is somewhat related to Bernard’s painting. On our way to find the perfect location for my concept, we stopped at these roots, and produced a series of images where the two are slowly making there way around to this central location. It was helpful to do this series first before we attempted the original plan which I have glanced at, but not worked on yet. This image is the final of this series. I have have had the pleasure to work with Claudine and Christian at ZoeFest in Palm Springs, and knew that they would be perfect. And of course they are!

Second attempt to post….. I have had the pleasure of working with Claudine so I know how versatile she is. This is a really lovely image. Beautiful work by the photographer and both models.
