The Feature Article (click here).
….finally sharing the feature article ‘Freshly Worn Magazine’ did with Poultice Jewelry. Expert styling & art direction by ‘G for Grace’ (the amazing Grace Chumfong)…gorgeous fashion photography by Art Zaratsyan. And three lovely models; Rachel, Alicia and Ashleigh.
The fashion shoot took place a couple of months ago. I was contacted by Grace Chumfong who suggested a tantalizing collaboration. Knowing that my work referenced historical subjects…she suggested a quasi-historical take on a fashion shoot. Grace, Art and I met to discuss story ideas…some were more complex than others. In the end a simple story of three formidable sisters won out…the three Bronte sisters. Grace sourced the fashion (primarily vintage) as well as organizing the make-up artist/hair stylists and the location.
The shoot took place in a beautiful, historic warehouse space that was now a domestic home. The owners were collectors of art and historical emphemera…some of their pieces are seen in the photographs. The shoot took place over the course of a morning and extended into the afternoon. During the shoot I was able to talk to the models about the Brontes and told a few stories linked to each piece of jewelry (lovely for me!). It was so interesting to be part of this process. And I love watching photographers at work. ‘G for Grace’ and ‘Art Zaratsyan Photography’ then took the results and worked up a promotional package for Poultice. This resulted in a feature article with ‘Freshly Worn’.
Freshly Worn magazine supports emerging creative talents. I’m so happy with the results. Hope you enjoy the article. x0
