ENTRY DESCRIPTION

This image was taking in Atrani, Italy, 22nd of may, 2025. At the center of the composition: a woman, elegantly dressed in a dark midi dress and high heels, strides confidently across the street. Her step is dynamic, almost dance-like, her posture upright, her expression unbound.

AUTHOR
While working as a graphic designer, Maxim Naumann used images to enrich his creativity and discovered photography as a new visual language. Based in Düsseldorf, he captures the world, from Europe to the remote landscapes of Australia, with an instinctive approach, letting spontaneity guide his lens. His work, awarded the Swiss Photo Club Critics Choice in 2023, explores textures, light and raw emotion through compositions that oscillate between fashion and snapshots of life, borrowing their intensity and timelessness from cinema. The artist's quest? To capture that perfect moment, suspended in time, that transcends the instant to become pure emotion.
