A Fine Art Editorial on the French Coast
Sainte Croix beach, in the Marseille region, provides the setting for this collaboration between photographer Virginie Vidal and model Mailys. The series includes both horizontal and vertical photographs, allowing the visual narrative to move between the surrounding environment and closer studies of its subject.
In fine art beach photography, the relationship between the subject and the location can be as important as any individual portrait. Here, the complete sequence is shown as separate images rather than a gallery, giving readers a clear view of each photograph in its original proportions.
Virginie Vidal’s Model Photography
Deep in Thought introduces Mailys through the lens of Virginie Vidal, whose work in this series combines photographic portraiture with a distinctly coastal setting. The selection of fifteen images reflects a considered editorial sequence, while the changing frame orientations add variety without interrupting the viewing experience.
LIONS Art Magazine publishes independent photographic stories by artists working across contemporary model photography, creative portraiture and fine art imagery. This editorial remains part of that collection and is presented with the original photographer, model and location credits below.
