EP

David Latto

in ,

David Latto is a Scottish singer/songwriter who commissioned me last year to photograph and design artwork for his EP “Show Me How To Feel”. He was inspired by Franck Bohbot’s  levitation images and wanted the EP as well as the single covers to carry the weightlessness theme. The shoot took place last summer in Mugdock Park and the EP was released in the autumn to great reviews (and deservedly so!).

GEAR
Nikon D850 + Nikkor 85mm f1.4

Pictures

Pictures is a project by Cliona Cassidy (voice) and Catriona McKay (harp and harmonium). I've worked with both artists on several occasions over the years, have great respect for them so it was a pleasure to be asked to photograph and design their EP. Cliona and Catriona had a very clear idea of what they wanted for the cover image and its inspiration was a famous Frida Kahlo photograph of the Mexican painter working in her studio (which you can see below). We first took a portrait of Catriona and then photographed Cliona standing next to an easel, just like Kahlo. Rest of the work was done in photoshop. See the EP cover below as well other images from that session:
