Bixotzez (“from the heart" in Basque)

A KALTBLUT exclusive film and editorial. Fashion Film by María Zabala. Photography by Leire Cavia. Models are David Velez and Arbile D’Aruzel. Stylist is Alaia Arde. Makeup and hair stylist is Damme D ́Comme. Drone pilot is Aitzol Arévalo. Fashion Brands are Emma Maggiotti, Kathy Udaondo and Florencia Nuñez. Leire Cavia, a fashion photographer from Bilbao based in Madrid, Spain.

“In the editorial, we wanted to represent the culture and the tradition of Basque Country, and its roots in the land. The models are not personal, but concepts; culture and tradition. The mountain also represents the journey, from birth till the cliff, representing the danger of a possible loss.”

What kind of stories do you like to tell with your photographs?

I like to try to photograph elements that are not usually seen or mixed, that attract attention. And then, I try to make the viewer interest, by giving a story or an aesthetic coherence.

How would you define your style?

Colourful, young, daring but with a base on the classics

How long have you been working in fashion photography?

This year begins my third year in photography. Until now I have been self-taught although this year I will receive a scholarship in a photography school.
