Phocal Point Photography is a Canadian collective of creatives headed by photographer Rock Serate. These imaginative artists demonstrate a flair for [fashion, fabulousness and current trends](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) in this spread featuring budding model Courtney Wichert.

Wichert is styled as a modern-day vintage vixen, in [hipster spectacles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bru-eyewear-fall) and vampy makeup and hair. The result is a shoot that emulates sexiness, as it acknowledges the [beauty of the past and present](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-soul-collection). I don't know about you, but I can't wait to see what Phocal Point Photography does next.
