THE EROTICISM OF XAVIER RENAUDXavier Renaud is a French photographer based in Paris who got into photography almost by chance, around the time his first child was born. What started as a hobby eventually turned into something much more serious and, as he himself has admitted, almost an addiction.
His early work was closely tied to
street photography, wandering around Paris in search of faces, gestures and spontaneous moments. Over time, he took that interest in people into more carefully planned shoots, specializing in
portrait, lifestyle, lingerie and artistic nude photography.
His photographs feature plenty of natural light, everyday settings and a clear intention to make the model and her surroundings feel like part of the same scene. The result is photography that feels
sensual yet simple, intimate and very natural, without the need for elaborate setups.
Below we've selected some photographs from his portfolio.

Feeding her social media.
THE COLOR WHITE VOL4And here we are: white. After an entire week talking about colors, shades, impossible names and some pretty questionable chromatic boundaries, we're finishing with the one color that seems to have decided
not to take part in any of those arguments.
Because there's something funny about white: on paper, it seems like the simplest color of them all. It doesn't need to scream for attention, it doesn't have to be particularly intense, and you're unlikely to hear two guys arguing for ten minutes about whether something is pearl white, off-white, ivory or nuclear white.
If it looks white, it's white as far as we're concerned, and we can peacefully get on with our lives.
But then white shows up on certain clothes and all that supposed discretion goes straight out the fucking window.
A white T-shirt, a shirt, a dress or, especially,
a good piece of white lingerie can attract a hell of a lot more attention than any color specifically designed to do exactly that. Maybe because it doesn't need much decoration. Maybe because it lets the shapes do all the work. Or maybe because our relationship with colors is a lot less sophisticated than we've spent this entire week pretending it is.
Either way, after making our way through greens, blues, lilacs, reds, yellows and blacks, we've finally reached the end of the road.
And we're finishing with white.
No mixtures, no complications and no need to check a Pantone chart to know exactly what the hell we're looking at.
Color week is over.
Now we can finally go back to focusing on what really matters.
