The photoshoot titled Magical Porcia by Stanley Patzold is creatively eccentric. It takes the collage medium that many fashion photographer's have happily embraced lately and gives it a quirky facelift. It uses stunning nature scenes and overlays typical beauty shots on top of them. Interestingly, if inspected closely, it becomes apparent that the images weren't paired haphazardly. Instead, they interact together. For instance, a face and hand continues the horizon of waves while a fistful of liquorice is compared to lightning.
Magical Porcia by Stanley Patzold may revolve heavily around artistic shots of nature, but the beauty shots also center on candy. For instance, shimmering pink lips are accentuated by lollipops and red nails are accompanied by gummi bears.
