I like how this is one of those rare photos that transcend the actual moment of the image.
The viewer is clearly beckoned into the time and place of the photo to discover the rest of the story and as it is only one image, we are left with the haunting knowledge that we are missing out on much more of something quite special. Even if it was "only" a photo shoot, this one shot embodies the image of storytelling exquisitely.
I think this photographer and model have a lot to show people about art. Kudos to you both.
