A portrait of a lady
My friend, who became a renowned supermodel in Korea after winning a grand prize at the supermodel contest in 2014, was only a trainee at a model agency when I took her portrait photographs in 2011. She shared insights into her life as a model, discussing the rigorous control over her body weight and the intense workouts required to maintain her appearance in perfect condition, all managed by her modeling agency. Although it was her lifelong dream to become a famous model, she also felt suffocated by the demanding training, likening herself to a doll. After the photoshoot, I used Photoshop to edit the photos, aiming to better capture and convey her sense of identity.
