Weeses Pieces Studio

Weeses Pieces

Two different energies dropped into one strange, beautiful playground: concrete planes, shallow water, and geometry that looks like it’s mid-sentence. A duet about contrast, reflection, and who owns the frame at any given moment.

Weeses Pieces Studio is one of those places that feels like a sketchbook turned inside out — angles, color, water, and structure all laid out in full volume. Nothing is subtle. Every surface wants to be photographed.

Bringing Model1 and Model2 into that environment turned it into a moving puzzle. They’re different on purpose: different ways of holding their bodies, different rhythms, different ways of staring down the lens. The fun was in letting them overlap, echo, and occasionally collide — never quite matching, but always in conversation.

Geometry & Reflection

Shallow pools turned into mirrors, picking up color from the walls and fragments of sky. We used the water less as a prop and more as a third character — catching doubled silhouettes, bent lines, and the moment when one model moves and the other chooses to stay still.

Two Stories, One Set

The best part of working with two models is the in-between: shared glances, tiny negotiations of space, the way a pose becomes a reply instead of a statement. Weeses Pieces gave us a controlled chaos of shapes; Model1 and Model2 gave it attitude and human scale.

This shoot was less about matching and more about echoing — letting each model stay fully themselves while the architecture tried to flatten them into design elements. The tension between those two forces is where the good frames lived.
