Dimitri Coste by Antoine Ricardou
Dimitri leads a double life. One is as a fashion photographer in Paris, and the other is in California, in his beat-up van with windows that haven’t closed in years. When he’s not shooting lost girls in second-rate motels, Dimitri Coste crisscrosses the States to vintage motocross competitions. We needed a city that echoed the two worlds Dimitri lives in; a city of girls, contrast and dusty backlighting. Las Vegas is a promise that Dimitri articulates so well.
