Fashion photographer Neil Mota has recently shot his Snake editorial spread for Zinc Magazine, which features the constricting reptiles encasing the model's neck.
The photos are grungy as the model's make-up is smudged, almost as if she's been in the rain. Completed with frizzy, over-the-top hair, the model is also naked, wearing only chunky jewelry--and a snake, of course. In one particular photo, the model has the serpent wrapped around her head, wearing a bejewelled head piece.
The Snake editorial showcases four different types of snakes, all of which boast beautifully patterned skin emphasized by the multi-colored jewelry and materials. The photos are intricate, and are not overshadowing the beauty of the snakes themselves. The model also looks flawless, and unafraid of the slithering reptiles.
