I find his work to be very somber and quiet, a relaxing break when all the summer editorials are saturated in high energy and bright colours. I love how he composed the shots above to bring out the texture and volume of her hair. The recent nudity trend in high profile magazines is toned down here, but the sensuality is not lost in the least - I find it verges on the side of elegance. And the double cocktail ring is simply to die for.
