The collection of images is titled Leon after their child. 

Speaking about the photos, Mr Guinet said: ‘In this personal project, I wish to sublimate these weeks of patience and put the beauty of the woman in these magical moments, where Nature and Love make perfect allies. 

‘The selection of landscapes found in the series such as the forest, the mountains or the sea are elements that form part of my surroundings. 

‘The vegetable and body compositions merge together revealing gentleness and patience in a poetic universe.’

Mr Guinet is an urban gardener best known for his unusual and creative flower and vegetable designs.
