30 second video showing the build up of all the layers that created this image.
My first attempt to shoot a fantasy composite concept in a studio environment.
I was inspired by a stunning peacock themed dress I saw, which I unfortunately couldn't get my hands on. The dress pictured here was the best I could find, but along with the set I pieced together, the creativity of makeup artist, Erica White, and the interpretation of my concept by model, Betty La, quite a character came to life before our eyes.
