CRIMSON CRIMSON FOSTER FOSTER

‘Since a young age, I’ve always been one for being creative. Whether that involved writing, creating short films, or photography, I always required an outlet. My work’s like an extension of me, and that’s especially how I see my photography.

Photography’s been a big interest of mine since I was about twelve. That’s when I remember getting my first camera, at least. Slowly over the years, I’ve developed a style and began honing in on subjects I find interesting. The subjects I typically find the most interesting turns out be, drum roll please… people!

My minds always been quite chaotic, to a degree. I live with social anxiety, depression, and high functioning autism, so to put it simply, my brain’s incapable of ever being quiet! That chaotic energy, or whatever you want to call it, is a big influence for my outfits, the colour palette’s, the makeup. I’ve always felt like those things are a good way to represent that.

I also happen to be queer, so particularly with this shoot, and to be fair, a lot of my shoots in general, I’ve specifically seeked out a queer model, who’s also neurodivergent. That choice was such an important one because, as I’d mentioned up at the top, my work is quite often a reflection of who I am, and collaborating with someone who has those shared experiences, was a really satisfying way to achieve that.”u
