Never Fall In Loveby *GothicNarcissus

Photography / Conceptual

"You want to be my lover,
You want to be my man.
I am a flower
And I hurt your hands.
Don't say you love me,
Don't say you care:
I'm not human,
We will never be the same.

You can carry on like that
I will give you all I've got.
I'm not the one you're looking for:
Roses never, never fall in love.

You could be a giant,
You could be a child:
I'm buried in the ground
And I never cry.
Don't say you love me,
Don't say you care:
I'm not human,
We will never be the same.

You can carry on like that
I will give you all I've got.
I'm not the one you're looking for:
Roses never, never,
Roses never, never fall in love."

_{[ Never Fall In Love - Emilie Simon ]}

As anticipated on my Tumblr, here is a brand new work!
This is an idea I had totally randomly last month while listening to the song, but that I haven't been able to shoot until today. I really love how it all came out, and I'm quite proud of how I made the make up and outfit, I had never done such a complex thing for the latter.
I'd say my fashion influences are getting stronger and stronger. There is no particular photo I took inspiration from for this one, but it still looks kind of Vogue-ish, doesn't it?
You can read more details and see an exclusive outtake I particularly like on my blog!

Amazing piece. I listened to the song and was able to make the connection to the photo. The roses add a delicate touch to the dark appearance of you. The lace scarf and you're eye make up add visual interest. The veil in you're hair is kinda off centered but it looks like a wind is moving it or a ghost of a past lover. The only thing I would have fixed about the photo is the lighting you look kind of washed out. The photo would have been cool in black and white with the rose being in color. This piece made me think a lot about the meaning behind it. This photo made me think of a black widow someone who fell in love and then hurt the person they fell in love with great job on the picture

Lovely photo "ME", your a perfect example of why I like pretty boys in makeup... they can wear anything or nothing and be just absolutely stunning, while dangerously thorny, yet playful and sexy too!

LOL, A Fan

Have Happy New Year
