Photography Jacques Burga 2026

Description

This monochrome editorial portrait features actor Diego Calva crouching behind ornate white wrought-iron balcony railings. Photographed by Jacques Burga for Man About Town with fashion styling by Luke Day, the composition captures the subject from a low angle looking through the vertical bars of the railing. The lighting is high-contrast, characteristic of black-and-white film capture, highlighting the texture of his patterned shirt and dark outerwear. Curtains frame the window opening behind him in the background. The image reflects a cinematic and editorial aesthetic.
