The second story is something more modern. I wanted to produce a dream-like state of thought in the images, playing on both an oldish Film Noir/Hollywood starlet era and also the sexual tension that comes from an intimate moment.

I always want to make my images, and stories feel like a film that someone paused. To have them living and breathing but for a spilt second, time stops. For me, these images have it but I'm still trying to perfect it. I almost want the subjects to get up, move around and talk....! One day, I will get there - or I'll at least keep trying.

The subject matter for my images can be a film, my imagination, a song or just a moment.
