Photographing models truly suspended inside bubbles held up by nothing but a thin thread fulfilled a long-held vision. The entire team, model Simone D'Aillencourt, and I were fully committed to bringing our shared concept to life."
"I’m deeply honored to collaborate with Ingolstadt Village. It’s a great joy to see my 'bubble' photography continue to inspire new ideas and imagination."
