Young Photographer Series: Jessica Klingelfuss (23)
“Photography is the purest augmentation of reality. I enjoy creating these strange and surreal dreamscapes, and placing quirky characters in them. I think fashion is as much an art form as any traditional medium like painting or sculpture, and lends itself well to being photographed and not just worn. You could say I am a visual hedonist – my eyes lust for pure beauty constantly, imagery that leaves me breathless, colours so rich my pupils dilate, and photography gives me a chance to fulfill this.”

I am young emerging Sydney-based fashion photographer with an affinity for the weird and the wonderful. I have a unique approach to imagery, manipulating natural ethereal light and rich colours. I’m very partial to taking girls with soft natural looks and transforming them into curious alien beauties, and am not one to shy away from the surreal and fantastical. My work has appeared locally and internationally in magazines such as Happenstance (AUS), Fruit Magazine (UK), Mirrin (UK) and most recently a cover for eco-friendly fashion publication Peppermint Magazine (AUS).
