When it came to their August 2013 issue TOWN & COUNTRY USA thought ‘Paris is always a good idea’ and commissioned BETTINA LEWIN to travel to the city on the Seine.
Models Cassie Davies and Stuart Jones posed for ‘The Great Cover Up’ in classy looks styled by Jade Hopson.
Bettina tells GoSee, “Our story is inspired by the film A Bout de Souffle by Jean-Luc Godard. And it was a great experience to work together with Jade Hopson.”
Once again Andreas DORIA c/o GoSee Member UPFRONT carried out the post-production in a great vintage used paper look.
Bettina Lewin was born in Hildesheim, Lower Saxony, Germany. When she was as young as 9-years-old, she was determined to become a Photographer one day. After completing High School, she left for Barcelona where she started working as a Photographer for the independent magazine, V.O.; and produced a campaign for a Spanish fashion chain with just 4 rolls of film and 1 lens. The campaign was a huge success. In an unexpected turn, Bettina was then presented an opportunity to become a Beauty Editor, which she accepted and held for 12 years. Despite her success in this role, she never let go of her deep love for photography and decided to resign and return to it. Her work has since been shown in many exhibitions.
In 2001, Bettina became a full-time Photographer.
