Pure romance to close the first night. Photographing Zeena Zaki at Fashion Factor XIV, "The Identity," in Dubai, we shot a procession of corseted couture: fairy-tale ballgowns with clouds of tulle and ruffles in powder blue, lilac, blush, and buttercup, deepening into copper sequins, aubergine, and silver metallics, and a sculptural black. As a Dubai runway photographer, we captured the corsetry, the volume, and the movement front and back, through to the designer's finale. Masoud Raoufi Photography is a Dubai fashion and event photography studio; see more of our fashion photography in Dubai. As an event coverage project, we used the highest shutter speed, more than 25 frames per second, to capture all details in every moment of the show.
