The Vision Behind the Campaign
Every great campaign starts with a vision. This tour was conceived as a way to transport audiences into a world of timeless beauty and power, weaving together history, landscape, and high fashion in a seamless narrative. Each location was carefully selected not just for its visual grandeur but for its cultural and mythological significance, allowing the Lambertz brand to step beyond traditional advertising into the realm of epic storytelling.
With James Nader leading the creative direction and photography, the production was designed to push the limits of what could be achieved on location. Unlike controlled studio shoots, the Lambertz European Tour took our team into unpredictable environments—from icy glaciers to mist-covered lakes, where every frame had to be captured with precision and creativity amidst ever-changing elements.
The Journey – Iconic Locations and Mythical Goddesses
The ethereal beauty of Plitvice Lakes National Park provided the perfect setting for the Lady of the Lake, a character drawn from ancient European mythology. The cascading turquoise waters, lush forests, and shifting mist created an otherworldly atmosphere. Here, the styling was delicate and fluid, mirroring the movement of water itself, as if the goddess had risen straight from the falls
Hintertux Glacier, Austria – Morana, The Ice Maiden
In contrast to the warmth of Croatia, the Hintertux Glacier in Austria set the stage for Morana, the goddess of winter and death. Here, we played with the stark, frozen landscape, creating a fashion-forward interpretation of ice and power. The wind howled across the glacier as our team battled sub-zero temperatures, crafting an atmosphere of cold, elegant beauty.
Challenges & Triumphs:
- Freezing conditions made shooting difficult, with the wind and snow adding natural drama to the visuals.
- The challenge of lighting in reflective snow environments, ensuring the subject stood out against the ice.
- Hauling couture fashion and equipment up a glacier, where every second counted before the elements shifted.
The Production – Behind the Scenes of a Cinematic Campaign
While the final images tell a seamless story, the reality behind the scenes was one of pure creative dedication. This was not a shoot confined to a luxury studio—this was on-location, high-adrenaline fashion production at its best.
- Travelling light, thinking fast – Every location demanded a new approach, with on-the-spot lighting adjustments and dynamic composition changes dictated by nature itself.
- Fashion vs. nature – Elegant couture pieces had to withstand the elements, with models adapting to extreme conditions to create visual poetry against the landscapes.
- Pushing creative limits – Each shot was carefully curated to balance the grand scale of the location with the intimacy of portraiture, ensuring that the story of each goddess was both personal and epic.
Beyond the Shoot – The Power of Visual Storytelling
