Scroll down to find out more about the team behind The Waste Land.
JS: What is the inspiration behind the editorial “The Waste Land”?
FP: We were thinking about a location with an atmosphere that suits the fall season as we had all these colourful clothes from the new season collections. Going back to our childhood memories we were led to places where we’ve been as kids. The story was shot in our industrial hometown. It was an emotional journey.
All Images were made on the same street in the old part of town, close to the river Rhine.
JS: How long have you and Pepita been working together?
FP: We started working together in 1995 for Kid´s Wear Magazine. Pepita was fashion editor in Chief and Feli was working as an editor.
After some years of working as a freelance stylist, copy-writer, and DJ, we started in 2007 working in common art production and photographic work.
JS: What drew you to creating kids fashion editorials?
FP: Kids are the most inspiring people you can work with. They are free to be themselves and they love to play at the same time. It´s always like having a birthday party!
