For this series, I found inspiration in late 1800’s, early 1900’s studio portrait photography, with their extensive use of painted backdrops resembling outdoor/nature backgrounds and a simple use of props.
Since this was meant to be a re-interpretation, not a replica, we decided the wardrobe to be a mix & match of modern and vintage, stylish yet believable.
Keeping the color palette minimal was essential for the translation from the black and white portraits, so I decided to use vintage props, that would be mostly made out of wood and leather, giving me a tonal range that would play beautifully with skin tones & the all white wardrobe, creating almost a duotone feeling for the images.
