So We Walk Alone

“So we walk alone.”

_{[ Vanessa Ives – Penny Dreadful ]}


Last week I spent a few days with my dear friend Luisa after some time apart. As we’re both huge Penny Dreadful enthusiasts and I really love shooting with her, we decided to take some themed photos: it is not a cosplay of Vanessa Ives or anything, we just took inspiration from a few scenes or recurring themes in the series and elborated freely on them. Luisa's effortless grace, her aristocratic features and the complementing outfits make her a perfect model for such a project!
Side note, this is one of my favourite quotes from the series, so heartbreaking.
