LANEY








I started this series with a storyline in my mind and tried to recreate that in an unobvious way so that the images could be interpreted according to how it makes each individual feel, leaving the viewer to create the story for themselves.





I highly recommend a website called www.testmag.co.uk. The above 3 images are stills from a fashion film i fell in love with on this website. the film is called 'Complainte de la Seine' and is visually stunning. It was a huge influence for my 'Laney' series.
