Only four weeks remain before the year draws to a close. Time moves so quickly, doesn’t it? All the more reason to hold tight to what truly matters.
In Antibes, photographer Elena Van Bouvelen and model Chantal Scott found themselves basking in the lingering glow of summer. “We wanted to capture that feeling of an endless summer,” Elena shares, “the lightness, the carelessness. Summer feels like its own little life—a fleeting season where you live for the moment and forget about tomorrow.”
For Elena, this summer wasn’t rushed—it stretched into a month by the French seaside, where she roamed quiet coves and hidden beaches. “I spent my days chasing light, discovering beautiful spots to shoot. It was such a gift to slow down, to soak it all in.”
Elena Van Bouvelen and model Chantal Scott also contributed to our Print Issue Vol. 38, “The Art of Slowing Down.“
