Synopsis
An insight into the erotic world of Frédéric Fontenoy through a photo shoot.
His research with his models, his large format photography, his 1930s aesthetic and his collaboration with master printer Diamantino Quintas.
In the tranquil setting of a Paris apartment, a time capsule straight out of the 1930s, three young models get ready. In the adjoining room, the photographer puts the finishing touches to a very elaborate mise en scene.
Frédéric Fontenoy is considered one of the masters of contemporary fetish photography. Working with a large format view camera and assisted by his printer, he creates singular images, spending hours perfecting every detail.
