Glamour USA January 2015: Alessandra Ambrosio by Gilles Bensimon
I'm not sure I've said this before, but Gilles Bensimon is one of my favourite photographers. His beach shoots are the best I've seen. He knows how to direct the models so they look flawless. Some photographers work with the best models, yet the result is not as good as one would expect. Gilles, however, can make an average model look like a top. Gilles + Alessandra = match made in heaven. Ale already knows how to pose to make her body look perfect, and Gilles knows how to catch those poses. It's like they were born to work together. This shoot in incredibly gorgeous. The location is beautiful, the styling is on point, ...and the most important thing is that both the model and the photographer know what they're doing. And that shows in the photos. The whole spread has a vintage vibe, like it was made a couple of decades ago, and I enjoy it. But if I had to tell you to look at just one thing, I'd tell you to look at the poses. The strengh of Ale's pose...
