Javier Galue

'VEGETARIAN LADY'

Editorial featuring model Natalia Gaplouska

 

Javier Galue is a top fashion photographer from Madrid, Spain. Galue's editorials are beautiful, I especially love this editorial story of a vegetarian lady. The composition of glamour vs old with the location almost resembles that of a servants quarters, its fairy tale like. The pop of colour with the vegetables brings a glimpse of hope in an otherwise dreary setting. All of that combined makes for a stunning editorial that I very much admire. 

Style Inspiration

Futuristic vs anti-futuristic is the style for the next photo shoot, the movement thats dominating fashion at the moment as seen by Burberry in their A/W 14/15 collection. The idea of combining both futuristic and anti-futuristic in one shoot backing up my overall concept of opposition and texture contrast. Futuristic is all about rubbers and neoprene, whilst anti-futuristic returns to handcrafting and natural fibres like lace with a bit of boho style in the mix.

Lighting Mood Board

Shadows and creating depth is the lighting style for the shoot.

Inspiration for Shoot

Texture Mood Board

Contrasting textures and fabrics will be a strong element within photo shoot. A lot of sheer fabrics, pleats and lace, detail being placed over the body.

Rogan Brown

 

Rogan Brown's work is an exploration and re-presentation of natural organic forms both mineral and vegetal creating vastly intricate paper models. Rogan looks for patterns and repeated motifs that run through natural phenomena at different scales, from the microscopic to the macroscopic. 

"The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity... and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of a man of imagination, nature is imagination itself". - William Blake
