Electric Carnival
Electric Carnival
Living in NYC has definitely helped me gain a new perspective on beauty & fashion and has become a part of my style.
This editorial - Electric Carnival published in Dreamingless magazine for the October 2020 issue, is all about neon lights inspired by major influences and experiences in my personal life. Since the pandemic got us all working from home, exploring the empty streets of New York has been nothing but interesting. The empty neon lit streets in a city like NYC could no longer go unnoticed and so I started exploring. This experience led to the birth of this photo series.
