Ever since Switzerland-based automotive, landscape, and portrait photographer Sebastien Staub watched the shadowy intro to the recent hit HBO series True Detective, a personal project has been budding in his mind. He wanted to apply the double exposure technique to his work, saying that it will “push his work where he wants it to go”:
Clients need to see more and more what the final image will be like without having to imagine it. Most of the time they hire photographers who have already done this type of picture. I wanted to push it further and apply a homogenous style to the series with specific tones and colors so my potential clients could easily think to apply this concept to their brand.
The models were shot in the studio while the background images were from a New York trip. Sebastien featured the project in his most recent newsletter and has already received positive responses and new clients.
