'Lust for Love' Lensed by Marcy Dvorak for Vogue Portugal's May 2023 Pleasure Issue

I found myself having to translate my vision to the camera into a few key words, called "prompts": a far from easy undertaking for a photographer used to working with images rather than words. At first I tried to give random inputs, but I soon realized that the precision of my instructions was crucial if I was to get anywhere near the idea I had in mind.
