Marina, Paris

Marina was a very young 18-year-old model when I met her, and we shot at the Kube hotel in Paris. I actually did several shoots in that hotel, including a "couple" shoot that I'll post for you soon too! As you know, I'm not the greatest specialist or technician when it comes to photography, I've always managed a bit on my own, with whatever's at hand, trying things out somewhat at random. That day with Marina, I wanted to give the impression that she was bathing in a bathtub full of milk. But good luck lugging dozens of liters of milk cartons into a hotel room! That's when I had a quality idea... Plain old powdered milk! I bought a bag of it, which I emptied entirely into the bathtub, and it worked perfectly. On the other hand, the smell and the slightly pasty feel when draining the water at the end of the shoot wasn't great :p
