English rose - EVE
I believe that this photo was infact named eve, but for me it has connotation for an English Rose in some period film & is my favorite from the shoot.
For the whole shoot, i did try to imagine some kind of Edwardian garden, and also of the scene in the film Marie Antoinette where she walks through the meadow in her long natural white dress.
Some of the others reflect other periods in fashion history such as the 70s & 80s and some were inspired by artworks that have stuck in my mind since i was a child; but the garden ones cause real time travel for me, and capture what i always imagined it would be like to live in a wealthy, Edwardian Britain.
It became quite clear to me that if the model and photographer can get on the same wavelength, then great work can be achieved. Its all about getting into character and knowing the subject. Having a natural taste for fashion photography helps as does knowledge of art and the arts. I think i now know how to choose my models for future collections.
I posted a similar image earlier on, but now that I have the full disk of images from the shoot; i feel this is the better of the 2. why not compare for yourself?
