The horse´s warm coat gently clings to her,
an invisible bond of respect and trust
between two beings.
“I had been trying to setup an editorial shoot for a while. It was the middle of summer in France and most of the models had gone home or were on holiday. The French football team was about to win the World Cup.” recalls photographer Alex Jonas.
“Needless to say that getting a team together at that time was a challenge. Eventually the planets lined up and everything fell into place. The location, the style, the props and the team. A friend of mine has a farm outside of Paris where horses roam free in the fields. Last time I was there I thought it would be great to throw a model in there.” Viktoriya Bogoslavceva liked this idea as well and together with Stylist Marie Revelut, Make up artist Gaelle Bonnot, Art director Laurence Boukobza and Assistant Enora Allehaux Villan they drove there, to Ferme de Mesenguy, in a vintage Range Rover, had lunch at the farm and cruised in the fields until sunset, playing with the car and the horses. “The young ones are really curious and friendly. They will surround you in a second, sniff you up and whisper in your ear asking for love and food!”
