Black and white portrait of a man holding a vintage video camera wearing sunglasses, a blazer, and wide-leg jeans in front of a painted door.

Billy Kidd, Photographer, New York

About

This striking black and white monochrome editorial image was captured by photographer and director Billy Kidd. The scene features a man standing in a narrow urban corridor or doorway against a dark painted surface with stenciled text reading "NO PARKING" and "24 HOUR". The subject is wearing dark sunglasses, a double-breasted blazer, and wide-leg denim jeans, positioned squarely in the frame while holding a vintage professional video camera directly toward the lens. The lighting is direct and high-contrast, casting sharp shadows and emphasizing the grainy, analogue texture of the film stock. The Esquire magazine logo is visible in the upper right corner of the frame, completing the editorial composition.
