Romances d’Été Part II

 

 

Have a lot of pleasure with Max Stolzenberg’s romantic photography.

Summer Vibes

 

 

As the weather is still too cold for this time of the year we decided to raise the temperatures with some new, red hot pictures.

There is a lot going on this year and Max is already preparing to welcome the most beautiful Jeune Filles in France.

But for now we leave you alone with these new pictures and a beautiful poem written by Olivier Mathieu.

Les amours ont vieilli et les amis sont morts,
Trop nombreux les amours où manqua tout amour
Mais voilà que surgit au fond de ma mémoire
L’image des sommeils au temps de mon enfance,
Le reste ne fut rien, dans les bras de ma mère.
Et défilent mes morts au revers des nuages
Et se posent sur moi les yeux irrésistibles
Et de larmes noyés en un pacte échangé.
C’est les yeux de mon chien, c’est les yeux de mes maîtres,
La nuit était profonde et lourd le conformisme
Et j’ai feint de trahir pour ne jamais trahir.
J’entends encor sonner le concert du triangle
Et c’est l’odeur des foins, l’acier brille au soleil,
C’est les yeux des enfants morts à l’âge de l’ange.
Que m’absolvent mes morts, que le ciel pleure en pluie,
Que les instants d’antan au bel arc-en-ciel brillent.
L’enfance se fait proche, j’en reviens au principe.
Il sera toujours bref, le temps des jupes courtes.
Je voudrais pas crever avant l’été prochain.

Memories of an unforgettable Summer

Max has asked us to realize two new videos containing some of the most beautiful pictures he did during his Summer stay in south France.
We are proud to announce the premiere of the first of these two videos on our YouTube channel for Sunday at 20:00 MEZ.
The video will feature photos of Belle, Bilitis, Kia, Lycil and Yuna together with Ennio Morricone’s masterpiece For love one can die..

What Max says:

This summer produced some of the most beautiful pictures. I really enjoyed the days with the girls and will forever remember the time with them. I hope you all enjoy the pictures as much as I do.
At the moment I am working on some exhibitions and I am already organizing some new photographic adventures with the girls.
We will go to Florence and meet some interesting people there. Among others the writer Olivier Mathieu and the well known photographer Corrado Pinci, former collaborator of the famous photographer Angelo Frontoni, who unfortunately died in the meantime. We all have a hang for romantic photography and I will also talk with Corrado about a future project together.
Until May I will photograph a few more girls and then go back to the south for a longer period of time, where the light and the landscape allow me to take the most beautiful pictures and inspire my creativity. Until then I wish you all much joy with my pictures and would be happy to welcome some of you at my exhibitions.

New Pictures!

 

 

For the first time ever!

Three photos of Manouk are now available!

This is your chance to get the No.1 of 300 prints!

We want to celebrate Manouks first appearance with the first two paragraphs of a beautiful poem

by French writer Olivier Mathieu!

La Coquillarde.

Chaque été toujours callipyge
De l’éternel présent vieux grec,
S’il se peut donc que quelqu’un pige,
Qu’il dédie une heure au bon bec,
Sein en proue et l’épaule ogive.
Mais dans l’été callipyge, est-ce
Qu’escarpins noirs, et dunes fesses,
De soleil lisérés fuseaux
Qui sont tant lisses d’or des peaux,
Genou à genou, cuisse à cuisse,
Et les peaux d’or qui tant sont lisses,
Genoux galets, jambes croisées,
Seront jamais chose oubliée?
Si tant de filles sont images,
La Coquillarde est la plus tendre
Des filles, si l’on veut m’entendre.
La Coquillarde est Reine mage
En exil d’aube et, mise au ban,
Elle sourit comme une enfant
Qui sait verser Soleil en nuit:
L’éternité dedans l’été
Qui à la paume point ne fuit.

 

 

Si demain vous savez me lire,
Petits culs ronds en tirelire
Ont des bouquets dans les cheveux,
Et des jupettes papillons.
Et de lumière certains anges
Ont à l’entrejambe un losange
Et applaudissant en cadence,
La sandale au pied se balance.
Les filles font la révérence
Et passent la langue à leurs lèvres,
Et leur culotte en transparence
Sait dessiner charmant triangle.
Cheveux au vent, robes d’été,
Jupes élastiques, fuseaux,
Cuisses oblongues, collants noirs,
Robes claires et courtes jupes,
Les cuisses sans fin des danseuses,
Jambes d’or, filles de Degas,
Ou d’antan germaines statues
Semblent d’un beau jardin les tiges,
Au Soleil, fleurs de jupes bleues
Et donnent tant et tant vertige…
