In many of these works the photographer includes themselves in the photograph. They depict themselves in the process of being photographed, simultaneously creating a self-portrait, as well as a portrait of the model in one image.

The addition of assistants, stylists and photographic equipment within the photograph draws attention to the cliché of the ‘fashion entourage’ and queries the myth of the slick fashion image.

Some pieces appear artificiality staged in a studio setting, and others are candids shot on location, surrounded by nature’s beauty.

The exhibition officially opens July 18th and runs through September 14th.
