TrailerParkDarling 5,691 Posted July 25, 2013 I don't think Chuck is awful but I feel like anyone can be a good portrait photographer if you have a nice camera. Like if you get a nice Nikon all of a sudden you are a ~photographer~ (My apologies to all photographers on the forum) Her + Nicole edit so much (that contrast+recolor tool) to make the people look like cartoons, I don't understand why. The worst is really Chuck's cropping, it's always so fucked. I did like The Dreamland photos, but I wonder if they are just sort of plain for an album? I will say Nicole's BTD cover is iconic and quite striking, imo. Lana is a great muse, I feel like anyone will think a photo of her is "good" because she is pretty And I really like the harshness of this photo by Chuck. 1 Quote *** People call me crazy but I'm in demand *** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rways 405 Posted July 25, 2013 Tbh i want all Lana's album cover to feature her from about her boobs and up with a part of her hair/head covering a small part of "LANA DEL REY" written in capital letters with the same font used for the title of the album which can be seen on the lower part of the cover just like the Born To Die and Paradise covers. It would be AMAZING tbh. Picturing her with every theme like this.... This pic could be used but yeah i prefer much much more Nicole 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Creyk 11,699 Posted July 25, 2013 I thought she might've gone with one of the L'Officiel shots for it but these songs aren't evoking enough glamour to really match that. And she's doing this project for a reason We heard 2 songs...there will be 13-18. I kind of hope there will be more variety in the sound, like you know how BTD has it's OTTR and DMD, then has the slow amazing songs like VG and MDM and the power songs like NA. There will probably be a bigger variety in the sound of the album as a whole. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel this way, when it comes to photographing a musician, I think it's really more about them than the photographer. I think practically anyone with the same equipment could do the same thing. 0 Quote "It's 2011, and we should all be aware of exactly how fast technology is developing" - Lana Del Rey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rebel 3,177 Posted April 11, 2014 Would be kinda lazy, though? Unless Lana had planned Ultraviolence for that long, but then again she shouldn't have released those photos in the first place. Same style/aesthestic, I get, but same shoot? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GangstaBoy 3,930 Posted April 11, 2014 She definitely shot a new session. If you pay attention you can see she's not wearing the same clothes and she's got a thin necklace, abscent in the photos from the Dreamland session... idk 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LanaRayDelMar 2,743 Posted April 14, 2020 NO. After the monstrosity of the LDRakaLG and Kill Kill album/EP art, Lana is NOT ALLOWED to use Chuck's shitty photography as the future album art. I expressly forbid it. The way we were warned 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
