Misha Manist for 'Cityscape Portraits' - NSFW / 24 images (Toulouse, 2014)
🕑 Added 2020-05-02 15:29:17 +0000 UTCToday I'm sharing photos from a shoot I've done with French model Misha Manist in Toulouse (France) on Oct 10, 2014.
I used to visit Toulouse at least once a year during those years. I'd go to photograph at a contemporary circus festival called CiRCa in Auch, a little town an hour from Toulouse. It took place during the last few days of October and I would later spend a few days in Toulouse after. My brother lived there for 3 years as well, after studying in Lido, a really good circus school there.
I've been in touch Misha for a while and she was just living in Toulouse. The shoot took place in a side street during late afternoon hours. We had to wait until there were no people for her to shed off her layers. Her bf at the time (in last photos), was watching from the side but joined for a few photos in the end to my request.
They're no longer together, and Misha has been living in the Czech Republic with a new partner. These photos were a beautiful memory and her ex was happy that I share their photos together as well.
The last 2 images were of them in a cafe where we sat after the shoot.
Hope you're well, where ever you are and thank you again for the support! :)
