Originally photographed for the Mercury nominated 2005 debut album campaign for Maximo Park's A Certain Trigger, this shot is part of a series photographed by Ian Davies. Inspired by the charcoal drawings of Robert Longo, Ian photographed a series of models/artists and friends in a style that was to show both caught energy and stress.

This particular shot shows a friend (Beatrice) of the artist, the photograph was used for the 2nd Maximo Park single Graffitti.

'What a body.  I didn't realise until after the shoot how sexy Beatrice could look.  She's the sister of a good friend who was helping me on the day.  It was not easy for this lady to move too erratically while wearing the stilletoes, but her hair just flew all around and this in itself helped to project the sexiness we wanted.'
