These quirky, playful photographs are the work of British photographer, Annie Collinge.

Collinge's blend of fashion and still life leads her to create these unique scenes which add a little fun to [fashion editorials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterstudio).

These attention-grabbing images would definitely entice me to take a closer look at the magazine spread.

**Implications** - Capturing a great image is one thing, but adding a [whimsical element](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025) to it is another. Images of models in nice outfits are beautiful, but people want to see more. Thus, photographers are coming up with [amusing concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks) that truly display their creative minds and in return, really bring focus to the designer's outfits in a playful manner. It then becomes easier to market their work because after all, eccentricity and theatrics are what catch the eye first.
