Elle France July 11, 2024 : Cindy Bruna by Cameron Hammond

Cindy is such a stunning woman. Great to see her still working
 
Sooooo beautiful, fresh, cool and summer worthy.
 
Nice to see Cameron Hammond getting into editorial. I think he should be in charge of shooting the entire SI Swimsuit edition.
 
I still have Cameron Hammond in the soft pornographer category of 35mm swim photographers. He could pivot his work to a more mature / less horny sensibility but most of is still super close up crotch shots with water dripping from between two legs, girls suggestively drinking from a lawn hose, crushed watermelons over skin etc. All the corny swim cliches. There's so many of the horny 35mm swim photographers now that it has all started to look identical. Also because they all use the same cameras and lenses and film. Nikon FM3's etc. They all want to be Purienne, but the difference between what Purienne does and the imitators is that his entire life is aesthetically identical to the images. At his place in LA every item speaks to 70's hedonism, Bauhaus design etc. Every fork, every chair, every piece of furniture. The Cameron Hammonds of the world are just out taking titty pictures with no real voice that makes it any other than barely there nudity, which is pretty hollow.
 
Having said that he and his wife are probably drinking rose on an impossibly beautiful beach somewhere surrounded by beautiful naked women and I’m on a forum. So fair play.

As gorgeous as Cindy is, this isn't her best cover. Looks like an outtake.

You're right. I actually came back to your post after just seeing a story with Luna and Birgit and wondering how they suddenly went from looking very high-fashion to kind of raunchy/instagram model vibes, then I scrolled up to see who shot it and it was Cameron Hammond so I came back to see what you had written lol.

Let's not lose sight about Purienne though, when you're this type of photographer, your home is where your clients start or where you at least hope they eventually land, it's partly presentation card, partly an extension of how you carry out predatory conduct and yeah one could say, Purienne has been accused of nothing, and that's why I'm saying conduct, not crime, because.. dating a teenager when you're in your late 30s (as he was when he started dating Natasha) tells you all you need to know about him as a professional photographer.

Also, I'm sure an apartment like that in LA sounds kind of sexy if you've never lived in LA... but don't forget you coexist with 22 year-olds that are famous and own entire mansions picture-ready for Architectural Digest. It's not crammed hoader s*it like in NY, it better be spacious, ultra curated and sleek especially if you're hellbent on hanging out at Chateau at least once a week to lure girls and convince others and yourself that you're just like them, but in your more obscure fashion corner.


Anyway I had forgotten about Cindy... nice to see her, she always irradiates sun and joy.
 
Healthy, beautiful, sporty, sexy, sunshine and aspirational! I am never a fan of her but these pictures are good! Yes it's more mainstream but it is more glamorous than Vogue Paris... Oh wait Vogue France
 
It's just one of those quintessential summer covers of Elle France, which will always and forever receive my seal of approval. Cindy Bruna looks absolutely gorgeous here, love the white skirt and denim shorts combo, the hair, the smile, the setting... it's all just so joyous, warm and inviting.
