Found these beautiful images from a link off the Urban Outfitters blog. http://blog.urbanoutfitters.com/ Maria Flore is a paris based photographer who's work mainly consists of fashion photography. Her site is currently under construction so there is only limited information on the pieces of work. These 3 images are from a set titled "Sleep Elevations." I love the use of space within the frame with the models usually suspended centrally. The images have a surreal beauty that is created through the movement of fabric and hair, lighting, posture of the sleeping models and use of backgrounds that vary from misty fields to beaches.
Another image from the series "Big Head Poetry." I like how this image is simple, surreal with the colours of the background highlighting the orange tone of the hair. It's a disorientating image because it defies the usual conventions of a portrait shot with the face of the subject completely covered. We don't expect to see this as a portrait, i with the hair being the only recognisible trait to the subjects identity.
I love the serenity of this photo. It's from a set entitled "Lost Pieces." The long material, the mist in the atmosphere, the soft lighting of what appears to be dawn creates a very calm image. There is a contrast between the strong lines of the ladder and the softness of the materials that helps draw the eye straight to the model.
