Mark Pillai, Photographer,

Description

A close-up, black and white portrait of model Karl Heinz Hirschberger captured by photographer Mark Pillai for the Numero Netherlands project 'Exklusive'. Hirschberger is styled in a tailored houndstooth patterned blazer over a high-collared white shirt with a tied ascot scarf, accessorized with prominent thick black rectangular eyeglasses. Hard, directional front lighting casts a crisp cast shadow against the pale studio backdrop and catches highlight glares across the spectacle lenses. The composition centers on his gaze and weathered beard, presenting a refined and retro-infused editorial menswear aesthetic.
