Paris interviews photographer Sylvie Blum to discuss Sylvie's past marriage to photographer Gunter Blum, whom she considers a significant mentor who taught her to "look" beyond just seeing, emphasizing shaping one's artistic eye. Sylvie also shares her experiences working with Helmut Newton as a model, including the "Woolford" campaign and shoots in the South of France. They reflect on the naturalness of nudity in art during that era, a stark contrast to its current reception, and the importance of feeling comfortable in one's skin. Sylvie mentions photographing models Colleen and Jamie Nelson, and talks about Helmut Newton's approach to posing and manipulating subjects, sharing a humorous anecdote about David Bailey's direction style as well.
