At just 19 years old, photographer and artist Patricia Recourt has made herself a great success in the industry of fashion and photography.
This self-made professional started out shooting when she was just 14 years old and has already had a photo published by Vogue Magazine. She's also had the opportunity to work closely with the makeup artist of Paul Venoit, as well as shoot for Ford Models. Patricia’s photos are inspired by other art pieces and film, and though she started off shooting high-fashion, she currently focuses on beauty portraits.
She often does all of the styling herself, including hair and makeup, but she says that Venoit will often work his magic as well. Patricia continues to be inspired to create more pieces of art and, since this is just the beginning for this 19-year old, who knows where her work will end up next.
