Nylon Magazine profiles electronic music producer Chris Lake in a feature titled 'Chris Lake Is Craving Something New.' The editorial series moves between high-contrast studio portraits and candid urban rooftop photography, utilizing a mix of direct flash and natural daylight to establish a distinct visual rhythm. Photographer Brendan Wixted and creative director Karen Hibbert anchor the session, leaning into a raw, grainy aesthetic that highlights the artist's casual style. Throughout the imagery, Lake is captured in various settings, from a controlled cobalt blue studio backdrop to an industrial city skyline. The shoot employs a range of techniques including shallow depth of field and motion freeze, lending an authentic, retro-inspired street feel to the portraits.
