Hotel rooms have always been a fascinating place for André.  He has traveled extensively with his work, and in his personal life. Regardless of the skyline he has this need to be naughty in them.  Naughtiness can mean so many things, to André it simply means creating fantasy in an abstract setting for both him and his subject.  Here André explores some of that with his lifetime Muse and models from around the world.  From the beautiful tin rooflines out the double French doors in Paris to the lavish fun setting of a Montreal hotel, he shares glimpses.   Whether soft-sensual, or harder-darker, these moments emerge and leave some exploration to the viewer of his photography.
