You mentioned the word relevance, earlier, in reference to an editorial-film that can stand side by side with a photograph, and wanted to see if there is also a relevance between the surreal and the real, in your work?
I think the surreal is the carrot at the end of the stick when you're doing something like fashion photography. There are many constructs whether you like it or not. Even if you strip away all the clothing and makeup and sets you're still shooting absolutely transcendental beauties. I think when you focus your attention on the honest parts of that process and take it away from interfering contexts, you open yourself up to find the surreal. Its a place beyond the surface of your construction where you transcend more complex feelings from the image.
