Francesca Rando seems to coexist with the rocks on which she moves smoothly, plushly. As a Sardinian, the sea is her world. As simple in life as she is captivating in pictures, Francesca breathes nature in an authentic way, like the land where she was born.<\/span><\/p>\n

Francesca what is Beauty?
\n<\/b>Beauty is not fiction, it has so much to do with the soul. Sometimes you see a beautiful person, talk to them for two seconds and they are boring or annoying. Instead, someone who is beautiful in the soul comes to you in a different way and then you happen to see him even more beautiful outside.<\/span><\/p>\n

I see true beauty in nature, in animals and in people closest to this sensibility.<\/span><\/p>\n

How did you begin to shoot?
\n<\/b>I started very young, at 18, but it took me some time to get to nudity. Now that I am a 30-year-old woman I have the peace of mind to do it, overcoming the little fears and uncertainties you have as a young girl.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the pictures you are a femme fatale: are you like that in life too?
\n<\/b>No, I’m simple, I don’t often wear heels, I dress normally. I’m not a diva! <\/span><\/p>\n

Son a set you play a part, you bring out sides of you that don’t necessarily belong to everyday life.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Have you ever thought about yourself beyond the lens?
\n<\/b>Yes, I confess that I would like to be a photographer. But in a naturalistic context, perhaps in my own Sardinia. Photography allows you to represent reality in a very personal way.<\/span><\/p>\n

You look very natural: no forced gym sessions, meticulous diets?
\n<\/b>None of that. I eat, I don’t exercise, posing has always come naturally to me and I have made a job of it.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am happy because it allows me to travel, to live free, not bound by fixed mechanisms and timetables.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What are your best memories of a shoot?
\n<\/b>Definitely the shots with Benedusi. Steve Mc Curry also left me with a great memory, I did a workshop with him and it was great to hear him speak, to express his way of seeing beauty and art.<\/span><\/p>\n

I don’t have any negative memories, I tend to remove the bad things.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
