Numero Netherlands EXCLUSIVE BY MARK PILLAI 2025

About

This intimate monochrome close-up portrait features a young man with expressive dark eyes and tousled curly hair. He wears a delicate beaded necklace resting against his collarbone, adding a subtle textural element to the composition. The lighting is soft and directional, accentuating the contours of his face and creating gentle shadows. Photographed by Mark Pillai for Numero Netherlands, the image focuses entirely on the subject against a neutral, minimal backdrop.
