Inspired by a photograph I took when I was starting my photography career, a shoot in a british manor house, I invited my friends to come and dress up in 18th century fashion and we shot the whole day. They were all different ethnicities and the imagery ended up winning me an award with Broncolor lighting systems, a Swiss lighting company. With this piece I wanted to revisit that concept and photograph that changed my career nearly a decade ago now. This was made as a commission by OpenAI and distributed on their channels.
