Description
For this editorial project, photographer Donavon Smallwood captures the iconic Monet's Garden through a documentary lens. The series centers on botanical subjects and landscape features, utilizing a monochrome palette and analogue film to explore the textures and light within the space. The execution relies on a consistent moody aesthetic, incorporating techniques like macro focus, long exposure, and grainy finishes to build atmosphere. By leaning into natural light and dense vegetation, the work presents a contemplative study of the garden's organic forms.
