When Constantine approached me for a shoot, at first I was not sure I was the right model for him, due to my anonymity and the themes he wanted to explore which required something I was not sure I could give, however after a deep exchange, genuinely taking the time to explain why and how we could make it work, I embraced his offer.
He arrived on time and ready. He is a great character, open and frank. He has the great ability to direct me, but is also a great listener.
His approach to photography on our shoot was different and playful. Embracing my anonymity using different techniques, we explored blur and movement whilst capturing details in all the right places, the results exceeded my expectations.
This I was able to tell during the shoot, but especially afterwards looking through the raw files together. Countless images appeared tactile and so erotic, sensual or sexually explicit, but the latter ones with Constantine’s input went beyond that.
It is impossible for me to say how many of the gems I saw will be the ones finally edited, it doesn’t matter really, because I came out of the shoot ever so pleased that the challenge paid off. We gave it our all to create something different.
I am so grateful that Constantine did not give up at the first hurdle I presented when he first wrote to me. His beautiful words followed through. I would without a doubt work with Constantine again.
