A household name in the worlds
of gothic, romantic and fetish photography, Darkfairies's Stéphane
Lord is all about elegant introspection.
This philosophy can be said about both the artist and his models.
The dreamy, eccentric, elegant creatures we admire in his images...
Based in Montreal, Canada, he got his official start in 1995, thanks
to his very first model who hailed from the Gothic Rock scene. She
inspired him enough to give him the energy and enthusiasm to solely
focus on photography, which he studied extensively (the lack of
opportunities in the past almost made him stop for several years,
due to uninspiration).
A notorious Anglophile, he's been travelling on a regular basis to
the UK since twenty years. The landscapes of Old England and London
are a huge part of his inspiration, along with the Medieval, Victorian
and Pre-Raphaelite eras.
Although Lord is known for his affiliation with the Gothic Rock
scene and its aesthetics, he also enjoys working on other passions
such as mythology and fairies.
