Freedom, creativity & contrasts with Gisèle Oesch

Sometimes you don't need a grand concept, a meticulous plan. Sometimes all you need is a studio, a camera, a model—and the willingness to go with the flow. That's exactly what I experienced during my last shoot with Gisèle Oesch .

Gisèle and I went into the studio without a specific goal, just with the thought: Let's create what we want. No complex mood boards, no strict guidelines – just experiment, feel what the moment brings. And what can I say? It was amazing. This creative collaboration, this mutual inspiration, shaped the images. Gisèle was incredibly pleasant and open – a model who doesn't just stand in front of the camera, but also contributes, thinks for herself, and brings incredible skills to the table.

The results show a mix of spontaneous ideas, playful moments, and powerful poses. But (and here comes my own learning moment): I realize I want to work with even more contrast in the future. Perhaps more boldly. Perhaps even more provocatively. More angles, more edges. Who knows? The next shoot will reveal.

Thanks to Gisèle for the great collaboration.
