unfortunately, despite a rather tedious search for more information on the editorials, I still have zero information regarding stylists, makeup, etc. :ninja:

I'm in love with the serenity in his images, there's something very elegant and young about it but it's never intimidating or hard to swallow... quite approachable IMO. :wub:

MulletProof thank so much for starting this thread!:flower: I've never seen his work before (apart from the Lou Doillon pictures) and I've fallen in love. His play with tone is incredible. A real softness.:heart:

Casta picture is just terrible! luv it. and most of time i don't like her. (she's boring!) this portrait is soo cliché. i'm loving it! messy hairs, la tour Eiffel, shoulders,no make up face, levé(couché?) du soleil blabla.
damn, i wanted to know about #3 & #7

Oh how can you say that BerlinRocks! Laetitia is phenomenal! As Vivienne Westwood said " I don't believe in God, but when I see Laetitia, I'm tempted to change my mind.":heart:

I'm glad you like it, karina!. :blush: :heart:

Berlin! :lol: ..i also dislike laetitia... passionately.:ninja:
I'll try to find some information for you, second round!.

very nice, mullet, thanks for sharing! i love how he keeps everything so simple and yet the compositions are so striking. and it feeds my love for silhouettes, of course. the first image in post #8 is especially beautiful :heart:

Thank you for posting! I like the way he uses shadows and the contrast of light and shadows. He makes very good work in those black and white photos. There's a feeling of tranquility in these photographs.

Amazing photographer, thanks for starting the thread, love the tones down, images/colors! ;)
