"When shooting Solange Knowles for The FADER, we wanted to reference her timeless songwriting, and emphasize her classic presence in the image. This cover was shot with an Bx 10 View Camera for a simple, timeless vibe, bringing only SO plates of film to capture the perfect shot (compared to a standard 2,000-shot digital sitting). We took many conservative, close up shots of Solange, but still wanted that final, bold image. We chose yellow as the backdrop, because it paired well with the natural lighting from the windows and the contrast of colors in her outfit. Solange stepped onto the apple box herself, and the shot we chose was the very last plate of film."
Description:
In this photo she is portrayed as different. To me she looks as if she is almost thinking about something else, something more serious. She seems as though she wants to focus on anything besides the camera. The back ground is plain so she can be the main subject of the portrait, so that means it is clearly not environmental. She has a casual and quite natural look about her so you can focus more on the main subject, which is her outfit. She looks focused but elegant which really brings the attention around to how pretty and yet somehow graceful her outfit is.
