”Jeunes & Mariés”
Polo & Melissa Mpoku
"Young & Married" is the title of the book Polo and Melissa Mpoku wrote to mark their 10th wedding anniversary. The beginning of their story could have led to abandonment or failure for some, but they never gave up on the love they had for each other. 

10 years on, their love is stronger than ever. Several elements revolve around this book, including a video clip, and I mainly worked on the cover of the book, which represented one of the scenes in the video clip. 

I had 2 roles: photographer and set designer. First of all, I had to build a board that retraced the entire history of the book: how they met, the key dates, the key phrases that marked their story. 

In the end, it was a real job of documentation and journalism. It was exciting to do.Secondly, we had to photograph the cover. The final idea was to represent their family, who look back on everything they've done with a sense of pride and recognition.
