Coco is my godchild, whom I love deeply. In front of the camera, she moves like a wild gazelle. Instinctive, expressive, and alive.

She has an innate ability to transform, to step into a mood or character with ease. I took the first portraits of Coco when she was fourteen, imagining a future in modeling. Today, she works professionally as a model alongside her career as a documentary filmmaker. Watching her grow into her own artistic voice has been profoundly moving.
