Visual hook · 100%

The visual hook is the surreal and uncanny juxtaposition of a traditional vintage wedding portrait with unsettling masks and out-of-place objects like cookies. The smiling, distorted mask on the groom and the blank, emotionless mask on the bride create immediate intrigue and a sense of unease, breaking the pattern of a normal photograph.
