Gavin Goodman, Photographer, Cape Town

Description

This striking editorial photograph captured by Gavin Goodman in Cape Town features a woman standing waist-deep in water before an ornate stone fountain or architectural backdrop. She wears a vibrant teal patterned robe and holds two brown monogram handbags above her head, with water cascading down from the upper bag and over her face. Her eyes are closed and her expression is serene. Above the scene, a large golden monogram logo is mounted prominently against the arched stonework. The lighting is natural and directional, highlighting the wet textures of the silk-like robe, the leather surfaces of the bags, and the splashing water droplets surrounding the subject.
