Herdes Magazine Bloom & Break 2026

Description

A portrait of a young Black man captured from the waist up against a deep teal studio backdrop for Herdes Magazine's Bloom & Break, photographed by Jose Carvajal. He wears a tailored black vest over a light powder-blue dress shirt adorned with an elaborate ruffled placket, large pointed collar, and matching frilled cuffs. His head is cast in dramatic shadow as he angles his gaze downward, delicately holding a single pink anthurium bloom by its slender stem. Low-key lighting sculpts the contours of his ruffled garment and hands while leaving his facial features subdued.
