2020 · Real-fire photo shoot

Phœnix Resurrection

Cosplayer Fire Ivy framed by a heart of real flames. No effects added in post.

Fire Ivy wanted to play the Phoenix inside real fire. The heart of flame was drawn live, breath by breath, while Frédéric Amadu was shooting.

This kind of image only works with tight coordination between model, photographer and fire breather, plus a dedicated fire-safety person on set.

Let’s talk
fire.
