cinematic fashion photograph on an ARRI Alexa 65 — the large-format cinema camera with its 65mm sensor — paired with an adapted Hasselblad HC 100mm f/2.2. A woman stands on the floor of a beautiful drained swimming pool, its tiled walls rising on every side; she is at the shallow end, weight settled onto one hip, one arm lifted slightly to shade her eyes as she looks up toward the camera, which sits at pool level and looks down into the basin. The depth of the empty pool makes a natural pit composition — the figure low, the walls framing, pale blue mosaic tile wrapping the whole space. She wears something extraordinary — a structured black Mugler sculptural gown — the tiled surround lending an almost surreal studio cleanliness. Flat, even overcast light falls from the open sky above the pool walls, laying completely shadowless illumination across the pool floor, the depth and perspective doing the composition.
