Dream State

Boundless imagination,
Possible impossibles,
In between suspended.

It took us more than one attempt to realize that shot as the inclusion of an accessory in underwater photography brings always specific challenges - buoyancy, depth, movements.

On this project I asked Tristan Pennet to be the model as I knew he wouldn't back down the opportunity to do something a little crazy

His words: "It's always a good idea when your friend present it to you... Then you are suddenly in it, shivering at the surface, getting your sinuses drained on every dive, blowing all the air from your lungs, thinking "What the heck have I gotten into?". And then the result proves that it wasn't a good idea but a GREAT one! Thank you Laura for giving me the opportunity to take a nap underwater. Wouldn't have done it without you. "
