Editorial: "Heavenly Creatures" by Photographer Julian Freyberg

An angel in metamorphosis into a human being. The heavenly beings have always fascinated photographer Julian Freyberg. In his editorial, he cites angels in pop cultural phenomena such as "City of Angels" or the famous angel photos by Peter Lindbergh with topmodel Amber Valletta.

"Angels have always fascinated me and I also believe that there is a guardian angel for everyone. The images of Peter Lindbergh were simply the visual inspiration for me but the story is more profound for me. I was just emotionally touched by the film 'City of Angels' and the idea of how far an angel would go - for the person he loves," says photographer Julian Freyberg, who sees mothers as "angels without wings".
