Friday I was lucky enough to visit the Design Museum and check out the stunning Tim Walker exhibition. I have been completely in awe of Tim’s styling and photography ever since I saw his ‘White Night’ photo shoot in Vogue, it not only captured my imagination but it really did capture a mystical and magical view of folk Russia (see the image below).

I think the way I feel about all the Tim Walker photographs is that I share his sense of beautiful fantasy, everything he shoots is so alive, because he makes it so. It escapes reality, but never too far away to be silly - skimming the edges of fairy tales. The over saturation of colours reminds me of my childhood spent looking at old book and playing with highly colourful, picturesque 1960’s Victory puzzles. I think I always assumed life would be like one of those puzzle pictures, idillic and over saturated and looking at Tim Walker’s photographs reminds me that I’m not the only one who’d like life to be a little richer in colour and little bit less serious. Beautiful!
