Audrey Lys has always been passionate about beauty. She specialised in selfportrait when she was still a student, at the ETPA school (Toulouse, France), at age 17. Just like Cindy Sherman, she enjoys shooting alone in her apartment, assuming multiple roles as photographer, model, make-up artist, hairstylist and wardrobe mistress. Through the years, she decided to devote herself to soft lights and romance, mixing all up with an historical touch. A few years ago, she decided to leave France. Fond of northern cultures, she flew to Sweden where she stayed a couple of years. In Stockholm, she could feel the soul of two of her muses : Greta Garbo and Christina, Queen of Sweden.

   Currently a PhD student in art history at the University Toulouse - Jean Jaurès and specializing in fashion photography, she gets inspired by Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, the magazines she studies. She also works as a research assistant at les Abattoirs, museum – Frac Occitanie Toulouse and teaches 19th century french painters at the university.
