Robbie Lawrence, Photographer/Director,

Description

This black and white editorial photograph for the COS High Summer project was captured by photographer Robbie Lawrence, featuring model Marcelo Mendez. The male subject is seated in a plastic chair directly on a sandy beach, positioned near the shoreline where waves softly break. He wears a short-sleeved white polo shirt paired with dark tailored shorts and flip-flops, resting his chin on his hand in a contemplative pose. Strong natural sunlight casts deep, sharp shadows across the scene, accentuating the coarse texture of the sand. Fashion editor Mitchell Belk styled the look, complemented by hair styling from Claire Grech and makeup by Siddhartha Simone.
