Shot by Matias Troncoso, 'Stay As You Are' is a passionate, elegant treat for the eye. The artist captures divine model Cristian Quitral in [intimate moments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat). The model wears a longing, slightly sensual look in each photograph. Her big blue eyes and plump lips are overwhelmingly alluring, perfectly balancing innocence with a femme fatale attitude. The lounging scenes create a narrative of a soulful, flighty romance.

Troncoso's [masterful lighting techniques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miror-collection) allow the narrative dynamics of the shoot to come forward. Differentiating between natural, studio and over-exposed lighting, the series moves through moods much as lovers would. The [quiet colors and organic composition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) make the photographs more believable and engaging.

Artist Matias Troncoso's work is charming and emotionally luminous.
