Waiting For My Sinking Boat: Personal fashion

I am utterly blown away by this series that Hrishi shot and edited. I love every photo! 

I have been trying to shoot in front of this sinking boat for over 2 years and just because it is quite a hike from Mahanttan I never made it until last weekend. It was totally worth it ofcourse. When it comes to styling I feel like there is always a tendency to do very pretty flowy dresses in abandoned locations as they form a cool contrast of pretty with the ugly or then the goth look cause it just goes with the abandoned dark theme. But I wanted to try something different and go for a slightly si-fi, indian, leather but with flowers wearing creature waiting for her sinking boat to arrive and take her to a her final destination. But don't worry, the journey to there is still light years away.

  1. Hey Prutha, I was beginning to miss your facial expressions as I scrolled through the first few images. However, your body language makes this mirror mask wearing creature unmistakably YOU - the face does not seem necessary... Bindhi on mask is a nice touch :)

    I like the grungy filter editing, but perhaps a tad less would have hit the spot for me. Concept, location and outfit are cool as ever.

  5. This is really cool. And I guess this is what you called real art in photography. You really did a good job in looking for a perfect location. It is really amazing.
