entry description
Us, and her. Layed on the back. Relaxed. The light is just wonderful, perfect. The atmosphere is full of tenderness. I see her breast. To me and to him as well, it is obvious we need to take this picture. He just stands up, he grabs the camera, asks me to move. He's got it. The picture of that moment. Precisely.about the photographer
Les Chevaliers Photographes are an unconventional artist duo whose photography explores the raw beauty of love, sexuality, and freedom. Since 2018, their work has been a bold and intimate journey, capturing intertwined bodies, tender moments, and the defiance of societal norms. Their art is a fusion of hedonism, poetry, and activism, challenging taboos and celebrating a liberated vision of desire.Their journey began with Secret Archives, a series first exhibited in 2020 at Concorde Art Gallery in France.
