Revival of old pictures, part 2

In fact, the pictures are not that old, taken 2 years ago, but there was always something about them that made me unsure. Now when all the stress is behind, looking through them, I love them more and more. Paris is the city of constant inspiration, and I always wanted to photograph a love story there. Something rather simple, almost minimalistic, but with chic details, something very Parisian (at least in my imagination :) It was my first experience (and actually the last) of creating a love story, kind of an editorial. It was an interesting experience and - I cooperated with a girl, whom I met at another shooting in France, a fellow photographer, we found beautiful models and dresses, talented Milia Ink created amazing invitations, our team was supported by talented hair and make up artists. We planned lots of walking, which was limited in reality due to heavy rain (it was snowing as well for about 3 minutes and sunny for another 5). So now I know that Paris in the middle of January is grey, gloomy and rainy  but still breathtakingly stunning.
