I'm guessing. . . the 14mm lens I covet. This gives great depth of field but (for me) distorts Alex's torso and Catherine's head. Thankfully not a fisheye effect. I haven't seen this approach in your other work; is it one that is now interesting you? I can see it being dramatic and evocative for theatrical ads.

I like the distortion. The effect I wanted was like a CCTV videotape of a crime in progress, rough stuff on the streets. Distortion is your friend: anybody can make heads look normal, fer cryin' out loud. :-)

I have to stop thinking so conservatively, thanks. Did the models see this, or might they use it for their portfolios? The more I look at it, the more I like it. It is less formal than the following "craig and verena", and almost seems unposed, 'caught in the act'.
