Laurence Arné: “I still found myself at 14 years old topless”

“Recently, I came across photos from my first shoot. I still found myself at 14 years old topless, from behind in the photographer's studio. And what's crazy is that my mother had no awareness of the potential danger in leaving me alone with an adult“, she recalled. While in hindsight she realizes that this session could have gone very badly, she didn't feel the need to talk about it to her parents.

“When my mother saw the photos, she found them super beautiful! My grandparents, a very old-France Bordeaux family, were offended by it. My mother told them that they had not understood anything and that they had to see the 'rock' side. Maos today, I realize that they were the ones who were right to be shocked, because frankly, the photos were really sordid“, she added.

Laurence Arné had enough courage to say “stop”

Unlike other young models her age, she had the strength of character to say “stop”. She knows she was lucky not to have é was taken by a photographer to a dark or isolated place. She knows that it can be very difficult to say no to an adult when you're still a young teenager.

In her career as an actress, she considers herself lucky to have, once again, never had to deal with very difficult situations to handle on film sets. She doesn't like working in violence.
