Simon Schaffrath and his wife are expecting, and so to celebrate, he decided to make a series of very creative photos, using his wife’s body as a canvas. Each photo has a special message for his unborn son, who is called Theo.
Simon writes: “I worked on every photo for one week. We took the photos on Sundays, then I retouched them with Photoshop till Wednesdays and after that I planned the next shoot. Modelling was great fun for both of us – of course we only used non-toxic and skin-tolerant products and materials, such as paste.”
“Fun fact: while shooting, Theo often kicked mom’s belly, so the paste got some cracks and we had to repair the landscape all the time. In the meantime the photos are framed and embellish Theodor’s bedroom and all we can do now, is wait for him.”
