Capturing Confidence and Personality
Every portrait session tells a story, and sometimes it feels like the universe lines up everything perfectly to create a truly memorable experience. That was exactly the case when I had the pleasure of photographing Agathe, a university student in Toronto with an amazing energy.
From the very start, Agathe and I hit it off. We bonded quickly over our shared backgrounds and, of course, a little bit of football (or soccer, as some prefer to call it). Our conversations flowed naturally, and what I expected might be a more formal session turned into something genuinely fun and easygoing. There was no awkward silence—just seamless, enjoyable moments that made the shoot fly by.
One of the best parts of working with Agathe was how effortless it was to capture her in front of the camera. She had an innate sense of how to move, understanding her body’s angles and responding to the smallest directions with ease. Each slight adjustment led to a pose that felt authentic, helping me capture her vibrant personality in every shot.
The locations Agathe chose for the shoot, along with her outfit selections, perfectly matched who she is. Everything came together, from the vibe of the city to the subtle details of her style. Together, we created images that both of us were thrilled with—portraits that truly represent who Agathe is.
It’s always a joy to work with someone who makes the experience feel collaborative, and Agathe did just that. Her confidence and energy made this shoot one to remember, and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for her!
