Anja Rubik
I like to take risks in this game... So I think my definition is: all or nothing. Hope you guys enjoy.
1.) UPSIDE DOWN

In addition, my goal was also to demonstrate a peace through the white tones and the shade of yellow in my clothing represents my optimism and lightness to reach the end of this season. A minimalist photo, cohesive and simple, but with an important meaning and a significant fashion tone. Beautiful at every angle.
2.) RECREATE

https://imgur.com/xWyq1Ua Explication: I'm recreating the photoshoot I was eliminated in (Photoshoot #6). The goal was to represent one of the Taylor Swift eras, and I chose EVERMORE.
This time, I'm embracing the concept of loneliness and redemption behind the era in question. EVERMORE is about someone who is going through a sadness after a complicated relationship, feels isolated and is in a place alone to redeem themselves. But even with this process of sadness, it is also a time of self-discovery and the search for redemption.
I'm portraying the sadness (and anger) of the end of a relationship that was bad and kept her trapped by her insecurities. However, the tone is one of nostalgia, hope, and acknowledgment that it was good, has come to an end, and will return to being good—with someone else or not (the remote environment represents this quest for understanding and redemption).
3.) INFINITY STONE

https://imgur.com/a/7ewwpEW Explication: The soul jewel is one of the most difficult and cruel jewels to obtain. In addition, it is one of the most powerful. In order for someone to get this jewel, the bearer must sacrifice what he loves most. A soul for a soul, that's the representation of my picture. A sacrifice of someone I love, with the goal of gaining the power to control souls from the world of the dead and the living. The main focus of this essay is Anja's gaze, which demonstrates a sense of guilt about what she just did to get the powers.
4.) MALAIKA

Malaika:
https://postimg.cc/qtNz1GLV Explication: I chose a photo of Malaika that represents very well the style of Anja Rubik: different, impactful and strange. I believe these two photos could be from the same essay, depicting a suspicious, staring, serial pose in a non-standard location. In Malaika's case, on the beach, with strange objects around her. In the case of Anja Rubik, a road, with minimalist characteristics, in which she is the highlight. In my opinion, this essay would be focused on the pose and look of each model, in order to impact who is seeing the photo.
