I like you, stay

Stay, be involved, surround me with your energy constantly. With photography from Guillaume Plas and styling from Scott Toulis ‘I like you, stay’ explores the the desire of surrounding, the urge to want a certain energy around you every minute of the waking day.

The documentation of the subject Yendi Le Scouarnec, follows their movements throughout various locations and poses to create a candid feel to the images, almost as if the camera is our eyes taking multiple mental images. The everyday actions make us as viewers feel a connection to the subject, we feel as though we are there, right in that moment, we hear the laugh, we smell the smoke of the cigarette, our sight blinded by the sun. Life is about these emotions, these sensory overloads through our life that fill our bodies with emotions and warmth. There is no shame in showing and feeling this rush, so show it more often. Be present, stay in that moment, feel that emotion.
