Digital Photo Media Week 10: Alexandra Sophie

Photographer: Alexandra Sophie
Type of Photography: Fine Art/Fashion
Alexandra Sophie is photographer based in Paris. Her photos are used in magazines such as Vogue and Elle and her style is very natural and light and it gives me the feeling of youth and freedom. I love the way she captures ambient light in most of her photos, and how her photos are more about nature and whenever I see her photos, it gives me a feeling of serenity and peace. I absolutely adore and fell in love with one of her projects named 'Jardin Fleuri', it is a series representing different ages of woman(last picture). This project was inspired by her motherhood when she gave birth to her son Marin in 2011. If you look at each picture, it tells a story about how girls got their first period and how we blossom - growing and becoming a woman and creating their very own seed/life. After looking at her project, I showed it to my mom and we had a good talk about my birth and how it went(even though I've heard it a million times), but this work really made me think about my mother and how she carried me in her womb for 9 months and went through excruciating pain just for me. I love it when photographs can make me think about my own personal life or the people I love.
