Mane Attraction - L'AG Magazine

I wanted to broaden my research a bit and not just look at graphic design. Here i wanted to explore the thoughts behind why these photos were taken like this, what they might be trying to portray with the style and how they maybe target a certain audience. These particular photos caught my attention because they aren't exactly advertising a clothing brand or collection. If anything its the models that are being shown in the photos, lack of clothing pretty much backs this up. Loads and loads of mysterious character, thats what these photos give off, and thats the reason they are so successful as pieces of photography. The lack of colour, the light picking up certain shapes of the body and highlighting them against the dark background, these all contribute to the photos creating this mystery and sexiness in a way. I just feel its a breath of fresh air against the boring model against white background thats so overused these days.
