The Endings

Featuring some of today's most beloved actresses, these piercing photographic vignettes capture female characters in the throes of powerful emotional transformations.

Art director Jessica Ennis and photographer Caitlin Cronenberg collected stories of heartbreak, relationship endings, and new beginnings-fictional but often inspired by real life-and set out to convey the raw emotions that are exposed in those most vulnerable of states. Collaborating with celebrated talents like Julianne Moore, Keira Knightley, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Ennis and Cronenberg developed each character, built her world, and then photographed as she lived the role before the camera.

The resulting collection is a bold look at women at crossroads that will speak to everyone who appreciates art, photography, and the strength of facing emotional depths head-on.
