Théo Le Foll : Knowing how to deliver your truth
At only 22 years old, Théo Le Foll, self-taught and passionate about photography, has already signed several advertising campaigns, including the most recent one for Paco Rabanne’s perfume “Fame”.
It was during a “five o’clock tea” in the showroom of a fashionable Parisian decorator that I met this young man. His angelic face and his self-confidence tinged with naivety (compared to the world in which he evolves) intrigued me right away. Very quickly, he shared with me some images of his work. His rock-decadent and very worked out style aroused my curiosity even more. We chat about photography of course and he explained that for him, this form of expression was a way to escape, and especially to feel alive. He loves the beauty of imperfection which is the essence of his art. To stop time, to capture emotions and to store them in a bag that will follow him all his life, that is his goal.
A fan of analog photography, with only 36 exposures on his film, he slows down for each image, breathes, opens his eyes and watches the world go by, then waits for THE moment and goes for it.
But when he immortalizes a moment, he doesn’t think too much. He is drawn to the colors, how they look on film and how they interact in a given scene at a given time.
