HERO Magazine
A day skating in LA with Andrey Tarasov




















May 2025
Captured by photographer Graham Dunn, this editorial feature for HERO Magazine documents a day in the life of model and skater Andrey Tarasov as he navigates the urban landscape of Los Angeles. The series leans into a candid, documentary-style approach, moving between high-contrast monochrome portraits and dynamic action shots that emphasize the raw textures of brutalist concrete and neighborhood streetscapes. The project captures the rhythm of youth culture through a mix of motion-blurred skateboarding tricks and quiet, observational moments. Utilizing analogue film techniques and natural light, the work maintains a gritty, tactile aesthetic. The framing shifts from wide-angle urban studies to intimate portraiture, highlighting both the architecture of the city and the effortless energy of the subject.
