Welcome to the first in a series of works featuring Pavla, a stunning Latvian model. This edition, an expansion of the original paperback release, now includes a broader selection of images. Please note, the original paperback is no longer available. Captured in 2018 in Riga, Latvia, this collection of black and white photographs showcases Pavla’s unique charm and grace against a variety of studio backdrops.
The Black and White set contains quite a lot more images as this one I did all the editing myself, but the Color version was retouched by a 3rd party. These Black and White photos are available in the hardcover book above.
This isn’t something I think I will do a lot, but it was an interesting process for me, seeing how others might edit my work. This will not be the norm, and if I do repeat it in the future, those photos will be clearly marked and will be a bonus. I wrote more on the thought behind this here: https://gjesdal.org/tasting-my-own-medicine/
