I really do love Paolo Roversi's photography, just because they're made to look like ageing photographs from the past. Unpolished and raw, seems he can capture the very story behind people too. Natalia Vodianova is one of my favorite models. She was raised in poverty, supporting her family by selling fruits on the streets in Russia, she then was picked up by a modelling scout in her adolescence, her modelling career then triumphs (modelling for many top designers, publications and photographers) and she is now happily married and mother to two boys (two? I'm not sure)
It's interesting that the photographer captures her childlike innocence and a kind of defiance in her eyes...she is dressed in gowns and feathers...I think looks mismatched to her undone hair and bare-face but she has a natural elegance that states she is very comfortable in her own skin. These set of photos is like a true interpretation of a real-life Cinderella.
Sorry guys, I tend to analyze a lot of things I see... Skills granted for me by studying the IB, ugh.
