If you have a sweet tooth, look no further than Photographer, Ludwig Favre. Favre was born just outside of Paris, yet has always had a fascination with the United States as he explained to us in a previous interview. He is experienced in visual curation for a variety of different media.
Whilst admiring Favre’s collections, we couldn’t help but notice the commonality of candy-coloured tones among his work. The combination of candy-coloured tones, youthfulness, and even dream-like scenery in his portfolio caught our eye.
Favre’s collections encourage us to step outside our comfort zones, and reminds us to embrace the innocence and playfulness of our inner-child! Each of Favre’s collections are unique, fun, and captivating in their own way.
