behind the shoot: white lies, through the glass.

This is the first video of the now “ behind the shoot ” series. I wanted to do this because I’d like people to know how I work, how I have the creative idea and make it happen in real life. Although this was just an experiment, this is my goal from now on. 

This video is probably an introduction. I’d like to call it like that. “White Lies” and “Through the Glass” is our latest project and I thought about creating harmony with colors with both shoots. For White Lies, I didn’t care if the textures of the fabric weren’t the exact, the color was the important part and needed to be monochromatic. The name of the series is another story though. 

Every time I publish the gallery on my Behance I have to put it a name. I was still hanging with Enya, the model, and asked her for ideas. We started talking about other things and she confessed me that she was excited about wearing white clothing because she never wore that color before. I asked why and she explained to how some people believe that white clothing cannot be mixed with people of color because they don’t look good. It makes the person look darker, like if it was something bad. I believe the opposite, though. My only thoughts are how incredibly stupid this statement sounds because you don’t need to have an specific skin tone to wear some color. That’s definitely a lie. I could even say the skin looks prettier. It enhances one of most beautiful parts of your body. I can’t believe people. White people shouldn’t wear black clothing, then? Sounds pretty bad.
