Do you believe beauty comes from within?It’s a topic I explore constantly with friends, clients, and everyone I photograph; helping people unlock that confidence they didn’t even know they had. And the results are magical: photos where it looks like they’ve been posing their whole life, radiating total self-assurance.It’s not about your face or body:it’s about owning yourself. Let your confidence and authenticity shine. 📸✨#photographer #photography by @mel_etlesfleurs

Parce qu’on ne nous a pas appris à être douces avec nous-mêmes, mais à nous conformer à des normes sur nos corps et nos apparences.Parce qu’on ne nous a pas transmis les outils pour nous regarder avec amour, et que nous avons intégré, au fil du temps, des injonctions sociales et parfois familiales.Chez @b_a_u_m_e_ , avec @mel_etlesfleurs , nous croyons qu’un chemin vers plus d’épanouissement passe par un rapport plus doux, plus aimant et bienveillant à soi et à son corps.C’est pourquoi nous vous proposons dès aujourd’hui à la boutique une expérience de reconnexion profonde, pour apprendre à vous regarder autrement. #phototherapy #womenempowerment #bienetrefeminin #boutiquemenstruelle #santefeminine by @mel_etlesfleurs

@mme.cdl & @liu_cng reached out to me because they wanted to step away from the office-home routine for just a little while. To celebrate themselves. To feel free.To reconnect with the parts of themselves that often get lost in everyday life. And in a world that teaches us to keep going, the earth reminds us to come back. 🌾 Thank you both for trusting me with something so meaningful, you queens ❤︎⁠@canonswitzerland @canonusa #geneva by @mel_etlesfleurs

Episode 9 — @manonpetrini Beauty is no longer only experienced, it is evaluated. And the line between personal choice and internalized pressure often becomes difficult to identify…This project "Redefining Beauty" exists to explore where insecurities and complexes come from, and how they are formed within this visual and cultural environment (without judgment!)Cosmetic procedures, self-perception, and identity are deeply interconnected, but they remain personal. Each individual has the right to choose what feels right for them, whether that is acceptance, transformation, or something in between. What matters is alignment, not conformity. 🙏🏻Thank you @manonpetrini for contributing to this reflection with honesty and openness. 🥹🩵@canonswitzerland #women #therapie by @mel_etlesfleurs

Episode 8 — Marie @b_a_u_m_e_ 🇬🇧 Endometriosis is not just a condition.It’s years of waiting for answers.Sometimes decades.It shapes how you see your body,how you trust it,how you live in it.But it doesn’t define the end of the story.With time, strength, and persistence,it is possible to rebuild that relationship.To choose your body again.To create life, even after everything it has been through.This project exists to remind that what feels like a lifelong strugglecan also be something you move through.Thank you Marie,for your trust,and for opening your world to me 💐🩷And thank you @b_a_u_m_e_ 🤍from their own stories, they created the kind of space they once needed.————————————🇫🇷 Épisode 8 — Marie @b_a_u_m_e_ L’endométriose n’est pas juste une maladie.Ce sont des années à attendre des réponses.Parfois des décennies.Elle façonne la manière dont tu vois ton corps,la confiance que tu lui accordes,la façon dont tu vis en lui.Mais elle ne définit pas la fin de l’histoire.Avec le temps, la force et la persévérance,il est possible de reconstruire cette relation.De choisir à nouveau ton corps.De créer la vie, même après tout ce qu’il a traversé.Ce projet existe pour rappeler que ce qui ressemble à un combat de toute une viepeut aussi être quelque chose que l’on traverse.Merci Marie,pour ta confianceet pour m’avoir ouvert ton monde 💐🩷Et merci @b_a_u_m_e_ 🤍qui, à partir de leurs propres histoires, ont créé l’espace dont elles avaient eux-mêmes besoin#canonphotography #switzerland #geneva by @mel_etlesfleurs

Episode 7 — Clem @lenversdu_descorps @b_a_u_m_e_ 🇬🇧 Bulimia.Sometimes eating becomes a way to cope.To calm anxiety.To avoid what hasn’t been faced yet.And because it’s food,it’s often not taken seriously enough.We don’t talk about it or not in the right way.What makes the difference is not willpower alone.It’s speaking.It’s being surrounded.It’s allowing yourself to face what’s underneath.Sometimes, what once felt like the lowest point becomes a turning point,because it forced you to look inward,to listen differently,to finally meet yourself.This project exists to show thateven in what feels like a dead end,something can shift.Thank you @lenversdu_descorps 💛for your honesty,and for this connection I now truly value.And thank you @b_a_u_m_e_ 🩷 From their own stories, they created the kind of space they once needed————————————🇫🇷 Boulimie.Parfois, manger devient une manière de tenir.D’apaiser l’anxiété.D’éviter ce qui n’a pas encore été affronté.Et comme il s’agit de nourriture,ce n’est souvent pas pris assez au sérieux.On n’en parle pas, ou pas de la bonne manière.Ce qui fait la différence, ce n’est pas uniquement la volonté.C’est le fait de parler.D’être entouré(e).De s’autoriser à faire face à ce qui se cache en dessous.Parfois, ce qui ressemblait le point le plus bas devient un tournant,parce que cela nous force à regarder à l’intérieur,à écouter autrement,à enfin se rencontrer soi-même.Ce projet existe pour montrer quemême dans ce qui ressemble à une impasse,quelque chose peut changer.Un grand merci à @lenversdu_descorps 💛pour ton honnêteté,et pour ce lien que je valorise aujourd’hui profondément.Et merci @b_a_u_m_e_ 🩷À partir de leurs propres histoires, elles ont créé l’espace dont elles (et nous) avaient autrefois besoin.#canonphotography #switzerland #geneva by @mel_etlesfleurs

Episode 4 - @opal_muzic For many of us, our bodies and our pace have always been judged.Move, but not too much.Rest, but don’t be lazy.Be yourself, but also be someone else.And we blame ourselves when we don’t measure up.But being calm, resting, moving at our own rhythm, none of it is a flaw.Every body, every presence, every person has a beauty that exists beyond these expectations.These photoshoots show that the so-called “flaws” are not ours, they are inherited.I’ll say it again:Everyone is photogenic! Everyone is beautiful! Thank you to @opal_muzic for trusting me with this story, and for letting herself be seen 💖 by @mel_etlesfleurs
