Glaze: Vol IX

In 2023 I became a part of Glaze Magazine, joining the layout and photography team for the Akrasia issue. Each issue of Glaze is based on a one word prompt that becomes the name of the issue. Teams interpret the word in which we as a team of models, makeup artists, stylists, photographer, and layout artist concept a shoot from start to finish. In this case the definition of Akrasia is “the state of mind in which someone acts against their better judgment through weakness of will.”

I photographed the Cheater Cheater spread which was based on the idea that the shoot would progress almost like a film. We shot this concept as day for night, a process often used in film to capture the detail you get shooting during the day and later color grading in post to appear as if it were shot in the evening. We wanted this to feel cinematic which I think the layout captures as well.

The Love Witch was concept that I received on the layout side which was based on a poem printed in the issue. I interpreted the ideas and themes in the poem and photography to create this six page spread.
