There is an air of sadness and loneliness that surrounds the 'In Thoughts of You' photo series. Although stunningly glamorous and elegant, the model looks as though she is waiting anxiously for what she believes could be bad news. The vintage styling makes me think of an era filled with war and a wife sitting at home while her husband is in the trenches.
London-based photographer Joanna Kustra, who was assisted by Andrzej Lepka, captures these poignant emotions beautifully. The 'In Thoughts of You' photo series may surround tragic events, but there is nothing tragic about the looks showcased throughout. Styled by Csilla Elekes, the outfits are subtly sensual yet entirely refined. 'In Thoughts of You' was shot for VIGORE MAGAZINE.
