Mysterious Sorceress Photoshoots

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Shadow Play by Soon Tong Showcases Darkly Elegant Ensembles

— September 16, 2012 — Fashion
Shadow Play by Soon Tong is a photo series that, as its title clearly suggests, has a little fun with shadows. Yet it is far from playful. Instead, it is a dark and gloomy photoshoot that gives the model a sorceress-like look that will enchant just about anyone. The Singapore-based photographer accented the somber style with just enough light to cast eerie shadows on the wall, one of which happens to look like a witch symbol.

With creative direction by Ashburn Eng, the photo series titled Shadow Play by Soon Tong has a clear vision. Model Renata Kroon of Upfront Models channels her inner magical properties to mesmerize her audience in black ensembles that are perfect for the fall season. Chris Ruth was on beauty duty.
