[1/3] It’s funny how our most used sense - sight - is also the most misleading one. ⁠

We judge based on what we see - though, don’t fully understand.⁠

We make decisions based on things we read - though, we don’t always have all the facts.⁠

I have been looking for an image that could represent all those times when you just gotta hold yourself. When the answer is in your mouth but you know the timing ain’t right. ⁠

It’s fairly easy to just spit out, but everyone has their own timings. I know i didn't hold myself in several situations in the past, but since i realised that, i've been trying to be more conscious of my opinions and many times, this is how I feel.⁠

I wanna say it, i want to share what i’m seeing, but many times… i know the timing is not right. Words are powerful tools, but they can pretty useless when on the other side there’s someone who can only speak, instead of listening. When on the other side there’s someone too short sighted, not because they’re dumb, but because of all the situational constraints that she can’t see through.⁠

I was looking for an image to represent this and i think i finally created one. Thank you ⁠

This is how I picture people who are happy the whole time. Like if they were forcing themselves when no one is watching, practising, so that they look cheerful when there are other people around.⁠

But just as there is a sun and a moon, night and day and all the other dualities in Nature, same goes within ourselves. If you are feeling down the whole time, you should probably seek help. If you are happy the whole time, with everything that’s going on in the world… you may need help as well.⁠.. unless, of course, you choose to live detached from reality.⁠

It’s totally normal to be down for a while. That’s life - a constant ride of ups and downs. You just need to learn how to manage yourself during the down times. ⁠

I think i’ll call this one “Simona’s Italian Portrait” in opposition to the first photo of that i posted, which I’ll call “Simona’s Finnish Portrait” 🙃⁠

Two totally different cultures coexisting in such a wonderful person! So, what’s your favourite portrait of Simona? This one or the first one I posted? 🤔⁠

I’ve been using this part of the studio quite often and i guess having there helped me explain why - i always loved sculpture and this is the spot where i feel i can bring women’s bodies closer to those majestic renaissance works. Or maybe i was just under the influence of italian genes 😅⁠

Someone out there knew I was missing Finland and since I can’t go back anytime soon, that someone sent to help me atone the distance 🙂⁠

In her own words - "Spicy Italian and introverted Finnish blood” - and i gotta tell you, that’s pretty accurate! 😎⁠

one of younger sisters. ⁠
It’s funny how i still refer to Eva as Rita’s sister… like if being Eva herself wasn’t enough. But I guess I put things this way because she’s still young. Nevertheless and from what I’ve seen so far, she’s definitely someone to keep under the radar 😉⁠

First, they were trying to see who had the best “bad ass" look. Then they gave up, because they are just too cute and sweet and that works as well 🙂

I’ve been shooting since 2017 and it’s been great to watch her evolution as a model. She’s still young and she definitely has that fierceness in her, but i also love how, sometimes, she can also be calm and introspective 🖤⁠

"Oh feel our bodies grow⁠
And our souls they play, yeah⁠
Yeah love I hope you know⁠
How much my heart depends, yeah⁠
But I guess that's love I can't pretend⁠
I guess that's love I can't pretend, oh oh"⁠

If i had to put a title on this one, I think i would go for “portrait of a young french actress”.⁠
I don’t know if it’s the bangs, the apparent shyness or maybe even the type of dress she was wearing, but i certainly love the “french vibe” of this one 🖤
