the photoshoot
Sinsation takes place during the most scandalous dinner party you’ve ever been invited to. Let’s hope you RSVP’d “yes” because these images will leave you green with envy.
We created a dinner party full of sins. There’s only one last guy left at the party and we’re capturing the ways in which he revels in every impulse. These images might repulse you or might enchant you - either way it’ll leave you wondering why you don’t live as freely as these guests do everyday.
Behind the scenes
Creating this photoshoot required us going to Els Encants to find fabric and second-hand props. We printed out religious images to reiterate the religious undertones of our concept. We also went to the supermarket to get fruits and octopus tentacles. An added perk was a fly that landed on our papaya and stayed for the whole shoot.
For our final book, we were inspired by vintage pornography magazines, hence the grain we added to our images.
