Description

This striking monochrome portrait from the project By The Book for The Blend Magazine was photographed by Ben Parks with fashion direction by Sam Ranger. A young male model is seated in a textured armchair, resting his hand against his head with a direct gaze. He wears a tailored pinstriped jacket with contrasting dark trim over a crisp white shirt. Hair styling by Hiroki Kojima and makeup by Marina Belfon Rose complete the polished look captured in this high-contrast studio session.
