Being a great admirer of French cinematographer Raoul Coutard, mostly known for his work with director Jean-Luc Godard, LA based photographer and cinematographer Leco Moura had the initial idea of a French New Wave of Cinema inspired photoshoot. Utilizing B&W 35mm film with natural lighting, he captured the portrayed strong female characters inspired by muses such as Brigitte Bardot and Anna Karina. The choice of nordic actresses Cornelia Grimsmo and Elvira Tröger for the editorial ended up adding the contemporary but distinct influence of Ingmar Bergman’s masterpiece Persona (1966), and the visual trademark of Swedish cinematographer Sven Nykvist to the final result.
