Samantha Everton's Vintage Dolls series is set in a shadowy world among dreams and waking. It features a cast of five elaborately attired girls entertaining themselves in an abandoned house. Everton went to quite extraordinary lengths in sourcing exactly the right props, costumes, and house for the images. Eventually she found a building ready for demolition, surprisingly, at the end of her suburban street and was able to set about meticulously creating the sets for her shoot.
