Waiting for Jonny
The girls and they’re lonesome stares with their matching corsages. The poses were mostly super staged like your classic school photograph. A combination of both elegance and tacky couture with skinny brows and brown liner.
I looked at early 90s enchanting Chicana photo shoots, images of chicano youth culture of Southern California in the 1990s; over exposed glowy photoshoots with their partners and girlfriends a night out - in the images they show such strong close bonds.
The images were also inspired by corny collages / edits for car advertisements, 90s underwear and beauty commercials; then later got inspired by 2010 era of hair and fashion photo shoots. All the inspiration were from strong women whom could pose softly and gently. The irony of the title of this shoot is that there his deffo no waiting for Jonny involved. He waits for us.
