Allie Smith, Makeup Artist,

Description

This vertical portrait from the Gabe Gordon F/W 25 Campaign features two men captured in a close embrace and kiss. Photographed by Michael Hauptman with styling by Zara Mirkin, hair by Dylan Chavles, and makeup by Allie Smith, the scene employs dramatic directional lighting that highlights facial contours and textured skin. The subjects wear light-coloured sleeveless garments with subtle vertical stripes, standing out sharply against a dark, undifferentiated background. Tattoos are visible on the shoulder and arm of the man on the right, adding raw detail to the intimate composition.
