Many of Anais Demois’ photo series tend to emphasize the surroundings
over the model, preferring to highlight the way in which the curves
of nature accentuate the curves of her feminine subject. Not so
in this series. In “Best Kept Secret” Anais takes his
model front and center and shows us all of her, and the results
are revolutionary and thrilling, to say the least. In this series
we are introduced to a secret all of us want to know!
The model in this shoot is a mix of wild and innocent. Her blonde
hair flows freely, and somewhat disheveled, over her shoulders.
Her eyes are piercing and hot. Her red lips are smiling subtly,
as if she has secrets to tell. Her make-up is somewhat heavy, giving
her the air of a rave girl or glamour princess. But best of all
is her see-thru silk gown. Maybe what lies under the gown is the
secret…
The most thrilling part about Demois work here is the way in which
he gets the model’s personality – as mysterious, voluptuous,
and precocious as it seems – to shine thru the photos. There
is a sparkle, an ebullience to this model, that makes you feel as
if she would definitely be a good time. She poses in a wide variety
of ways, showing off her body like a new present. She also artfully
pulls her shirt down or up in all the right spots, giving air to
her private under parts.
Demois has not thrown away all his old tricks to make this series,
however, for the model in question still blends in quite evocatively
and erotically with her natural surroundings. The surroundings here
seem to be a southern clime, rich with thick trees and abandoned
huts. There is, in other words, a savage quality to the region,
and the feral, feline aspect of the model contributes and is enhanced
by this quality. She seems like the kind of wild woman a stranded
sailor would love to see walk out of the jungle.
The series culminates with some beautiful shots of the model posing
on the porch of a house. She perches in the window like a cat, turning
her back, raising her backside in the air, nimbly showing off her
secrets. This series is a real treat, for the secrets are good to
see. Thanks be to Demois for another great piece of art!
