Stranded Contact Sheet Sanna Saastamoinen, Diesel Style Lab, SS 1999 (c) Rankin TOAF exclusive inkjet image “We did this project out in Sardinia in a sparse landscape. All of the images look alien and all of the models were chosen for their really strong looks. Sanna was a frequent collaborator with me at the time because she was a truly unique person, both in looks and personality. We had fun but took every shot seriously, we were both looking for images which said something more than just “buy this dress”. It’s a great example of my fashion photography at the time, where even on a commercial project creativity could be more important than anything else.” – Rankin
