Various Editorials Lover Letters in the Past Tense for Container Love Magazine (02 - The Identity Issue) 2025

Description

This editorial portrait for Container Love Magazine features two men posing intimately against a dark background with high-contrast directional lighting. The man in the foreground wears an off-white trench coat and holds a large glass vase filled with dried flowers and textured foliage. Behind him, another man wearing a dark pinstriped blazer rests his hand affectionately on his shoulder. The low-key lighting creates deep shadows and dramatic highlights across their faces and garments. Photographed by Tavinho Costa as part of the project Lover Letters in the Past Tense.
