The editorial was planned so the film and the stills came out of the same set-ups rather than being shot as two jobs — same light, same styling run, same pace. A single chair was the only prop carried onto the beach, and it appears in both the frames and the film.

Location & atmosphere

Chalk cliffs, late light, one chair.

Shooting into the last hour of light meant the colour in the styling — coral, red, pinstripe, black — had to do the work the location wouldn't. The wide frames set the place before the portraits close in on it.
