Behind The Scenes Of Natalie Imbruglia's Opera House Shoot

You'll probably recognize the cute as a button Mouseketeer (at right, obviously) as Australian singer-songwriter Natalie Imgruglia. You'll also probably recognize the Sydney Harbour bridge in the background and by way of spatial logic deduce that Ms. Imbruglia and her bearded man friend are atop the Sydney Opera House.
Him however, you might not know. The name's Chris Searl though some call him Hollywood - Monster Children co-founder, photographer, all round good dude and beard enthusiast. We recently caught up with the hairier of the two to discuss the extravagant lengths Harper's BAZAAR went to for their forthcoming Wonderland shoot, Natalie Imbruglia slipping on the sails and shooting a future classic Australian fashion editorial.
Harper's commissioned 8 Australian Photographers, with 8 Australian Designers all shot around a Wonderland theme, hence the Minnie Mouse styling. So they approached me as one of the 8 guys to shoot, and I got paired up with the good people at Sass and Bide. From there I sat with the project creative director Edward Coutts-Davidson and we both threw ridiculous ideas back and forth at each other.
And how did the Opera House idea come about?
I was thinking what hadn't been done in Australian fashion before from a photography perspective. I'd remembered Georges Antoni had shot Sophie Ward on the Harbour Bridge, but no one had been on the Opera House sails before. I drive past that thing every morning and thought how good it would be to be able to get up the top, but never thought it could actually happen. The last people that went up there were those squealing Qantas kids for a commercial and prior to that Samantha Riley for the opening of the Olympic Ceremony, so it was insane to think they'd let some bearded monster like me with a camera up there.
