In the whimsical and enigmatic shoot titled “Blindfolded,” photographer Rafal Lapszanski masterfully captures the delicate dance between sight and sensation. The series,  unfolds a narrative that is both ethereal and grounded, inviting viewers into a world where vision is obscured, and other senses take the lead.

A Symphony of Textures and Tones

Julie Våpenstad Holm, the mesmerizing muse of the shoot, embodies a timeless elegance that is accentuated by the intricate designs of Bowen Dryden. The lace and detailed fabric of her garments create a stark yet harmonious contrast with the natural, rugged backdrop. Bowen Dryden’s designs, known for their romantic yet contemporary edge, blend seamlessly with the theme of obscured vision, allowing the tactile quality of the fabrics to speak volumes.

House Of Vintro’s accessories add an element of vintage glamour to the shoot. The carefully curated pieces echo a bygone era, yet their bold design brings a modern twist. The standout feature, of course, is the floral blindfolds, which are both a visual delight and a symbolic gesture. These blindfolds challenge the model and the audience to rely on intuition and feeling over visual confirmation.

Laurel Hunter’s styling brings the entire vision to life. The choice of flowing dresses and structured accessories creates a narrative that is both cohesive and captivating. Hunter’s expertise shines through in the seamless integration of each element, ensuring that the story of “Blindfolded” is told with clarity and creativity.

Nadia Webber’s hair styling complements the ethereal quality of the shoot. The voluminous, textured hair adds a touch of fantasy, enhancing the overall mood and bringing a sense of otherworldly beauty to the images.
