Description

Captured by photographer Dan Roberts for the project Human Story with brand Side-note, this editorial image features model Mali Koopman seated on the edge of a weathered wooden pier extending over dark, rippling water. The scene is illuminated by warm, directional golden hour light that casts long shadows across the wooden decking and wooden mooring pilings in the foreground. Mali Koopman is dressed in dark apparel, sitting with legs dangling near the water's surface in a composed, contemplative posture. The composition emphasises natural textures, from the rough grain of the wooden pilings to the interplay of light and shadow across the water. Production was handled by Assembly Agency, with fashion styling by Emma Kalfus and Sophia Murdoch, and hair and make-up by Nisha Van Berkel.
