Sensual and emotional are the photographs by UK-based photographer Emma Hartvig. These beautiful images transport audiences into a dream-like world filled with romance and passionate feelings.
All these emotions are expressed by the way Hartvig locates the camera and uses lighting. The artist catches her models from unexpected angles where their body language is exposed to the lens. The introspective tone of her work is also set up by the colors used in each frame. Salmon-colored sunsets and blue-hued rainy days are some of the tonalities that help to create the dreamy world Hartvig strives to represent.
"I concentrate on performance, theater, and stage," explains the artist to the site My Modern Met, and the way she arranges each frame is similar to a romantic film aesthetic.
