Bathtime: An EDITH Glamour Cover and Interview
One source of light, a small series of photographs and a team working on the same idea: that was Bathtime, the shoot that became a cover feature in the October 2020 issue of EDITH Glamour. The publication also included a short interview with me about my photography and the series.
One light for Bathtime
The lighting constraint was part of the challenge of this shoot. I worked with a single source, and the resulting series became one of the projects I was particularly proud to have in my portfolio.
The spreads keep a narrow palette of dark surfaces and warm skin tones, with candles beside the bath. Changes in pose and framing carry the variety across the series.
The team behind the photographs
This was a collaboration, with each person contributing to the finished images:
Photography: Dmitry Bugaenko
Model: Margo Amp
Makeup: Liudmila Elkina
Styling: Tatyana Podolyakina
I was grateful to see the team's work brought together in the feature, and especially to Margo for her part in the series.
The cover and the interview
The cover appears above, followed by the original magazine spreads below. In the interview, I discussed my photography, why light matters to me and how I approach retouching. The feature also brings together the photographs and the team credits for Bathtime.
These pages are an archive of the publication. The original pages preserve the layout of the feature and the printed interview.
