What I snapped: #6

We shot these photos some four hours ago but I couldn't resist showing them to you ASAP as I'm kinda totally-not-being-modest-at-all in love with them. I don't know if there's a better feeling than being deeply gratified with what you've done knowing that, from the beginning, it's been your work one hundred percent.

What I always look for in a photo, whether it's a part of editorial or a single shot, is that it has to make you react in some way - whether you say it's grotesque, beautiful, or it brings up a memory or just reflects a feeling. To me, these are far too familiar to bring out feelings, (cause, you know, I've been looking at them for so long now) (Photoshop is a bitch that way) but I do associate them with both RNR and apocalypse at the same time. (Which is both a reason to be worried and pleased, I think) (But they make me react somehow, and that's the important part) 

Oh, and thanks to Nina. I know you've already seen her here a couple of times, but we just can't stop shooting together. And isn't she just oh so gorgeous? 

XOXO,

Pop art madness

I'm absolutely in love with this 10 Magazine editorial. Usually I'm really not fond of designer-specific editorials as they show (mostly) copied looks from the runway and for me, the whole fun and art of fashion should be to set new ways of seeing pieces from the runway combined together. But the amazing team at 10 Magazine has done such a great job working with the pop artist Barry Reigate that I think there's noone who will mind there are only Louis Vuitton pieces in this editorial, as they fit absolutely perfect with the theatrical background and vivid pop art.

XOXO,

Lucija
